You have to remove the <![CDATA[ and ]]>. Or put it on the inside of script, with // in front, as a comment.

<script type="text/javascript">
$(function() {
    $('.simple-marquee-container').SimpleMarquee();
});
</script>

or

<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
$(function() {
    $('.simple-marquee-container').SimpleMarquee();
});
//]]>
</script>

We would need more info then. Where have you included the code? Is the snippet really the problem? Are there more error details? Please edit your question with more information. @SanjayYadav – eisbehr Sep 21 '16 at 13:46

Took a short look. Your HTML is full of bugs, like unclosed tags. So clean up the HTML first, that may solve the problem or you will better see whats wrong. Actually your page is a mess. @SanjayYadav – eisbehr Sep 21 '16 at 14:01

if this code is in js file then just put this code

<script type="text/javascript">
$(function() {
    $('.simple-marquee-container').SimpleMarquee();
});
</script>

we use CDATA when we add js in xml file directly as per I know May be I was wrong this is the concept
