My carousel from Bootstrap won't display my images or react to the controls.

This is my HTML:

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
	<head>
		<title>Skates R Us</title>
		<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
		<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/bootstrap.min.css">
		<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/global.css">
	</head>

	<body>
		<div class="navbar navbar-inverse navbar-fixed-top" role="navigation">
			<div class="container">
				<div class="navbar-header">
					<button type="button" class="navbar-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".navbar-collapse">
					    <span class="sr-only">Toggle navigation</span>
					    <span class="icon-bar"></span>
					    <span class="icon-bar"></span>
					    <span class="icon-bar"></span>
					</button>
					<a href="#" class="navbar-brand">
						Skates R Us
					</a>
				</div>
				<div class="collapse navbar-collapse">
					<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
						<li class="active">
							<a href="index.html">Home</a>
						</li>

						<li>
							<a href="new.html">New Products</a>
						</li>
						<li>
							<a href="media.html">Media</a>
						</li>
					</ul>
				</div>
			</div>
		</div>

			<ol class="carousel-indicators">
				<li data-target="carousel" data-slide-to="0"></li>
				<li data-target="carousel" data-slide-to="1"></li>
				<li data-target="carousel" data-slide-to="2"></li>
			</ol>
			<div class="carousel-inner">

			<a href="#carousel" class="left carousel-control" data-slide="prev">
				<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-left"></span>

			<a href="#carousel" class="right carousel-control" data-slide="next">
				<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-right"></span>

		<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
		<script src="js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
		<script>
			$("#carousel").carousel();
		</script>
	</body>
</html>

My CSS:

#carousel {

	margin-top: 50px;

}

.carousel {
	height: 500px;
	margin-bottom: 60px;
}
/* Since positioning the image, we need to help out the caption */
.carousel-caption {
	z-index: 10;
}

/* Declare heights because of positioning of img element */
.carousel .item {
	width: 100%;
	height: 500px;
	background-color: #777;
}
.carousel-inner > .item > img {
	position: absolute;
	top: 0;
	left: 0;
	min-width: 100%;
	height: 500px;
}

@media (min-width: 768px) {
	.carousel-caption p {
    		margin-bottom: 20px;
    		font-size: 21px;
    		line-height: 1.4;
  	}
}

img {
	background: red;
}

There are no errors in the Chrome console and the code is pretty much the exact same as that from the Bootstrap examples.

This is what the site looks like on my end: Site

There are just two minor things here.

The first is in the following carousel indicator list items:

<!-- language: lang-html -->
<li data-target="carousel" data-slide-to="0"></li>

You need to pass the data-target attribute a selector which means the ID must be prefixed with #. So change them to the following:

<!-- language: lang-html --> <pre><code>&lt;li data-target=&quot;<b>#</b>carousel&quot; data-slide-to=&quot;0&quot;&gt;&lt;/li&gt; </code></pre>

Secondly, you need to give the carousel a starting point so both the carousel indicator items and the carousel inner items must have one active class. Like this:

<!-- language: lang-html --> <pre><code>&lt;ol class=&quot;carousel-indicators&quot;&gt; &lt;li data-target=&quot;#carousel&quot; data-slide-to=&quot;0&quot; <b>class=&quot;active&quot;</b>&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;!-- Other Items --&gt; &lt;/ol&gt; &lt;div class=&quot;carousel-inner&quot;&gt; &lt;div class=&quot;item <b>active</b>&quot;&gt; &lt;img src=&quot;https://picsum.photos/1500/600?image=1&quot; alt=&quot;Slide 1&quot; /&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;!-- Other Items --&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre>
