WordPress pages load JQuery framework which is used by wordpress to make client side javascript calls. But this is not accessible by non-wordpress javascript as wordpress loads JQuery in non-interfering mode. However the JQuery loaded by wordpress can be accessed if you write your JQuery scripst from within the ready function which is called on page load. Here is how

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
//Here you can access the JQuery $. An example line is below
$('#myDiv').css('background','#000000');
});
