Your id should be

<a href="#" id="clickme">Click me</a>

There was a # in your id.

** EDIT **
Your other problem is that you can't load a page on another domain into your site. You'll have to use an iframe for that.

Try removing the hash sign from the id of clickme

<a href="#" id="clickme">Click me</a>
