Semantic Ui Menu not working

Question

I am trying to work with semantic ui menu.

But I cannot get it to work, ie when I click the items in the menu, the active state isn't changing. I didn't find any examples in the web either.

HTML :

<div class="ui grid">
        <div class="one wide row">
            <div class="ui green menu">
                <a class="active item">
                    <i class="home icon"></i> Home
                </a>
                <a class="item">
                    <i class="mail icon"></i> Messages
                </a>
                <div class="right menu">
                    <div class="item">
                        <div class="ui transparent icon input">
                            <input type="text" placeholder="Search...">
                            <i class="search link icon"></i>
                        </div>
                    </div>
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>

JS:

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('.ui .green .menu').menu();
});

I have taken the code snippet from the semantic-ui website.

Some help is appreciated.

here's a handler similar to the one on their demo site

DEMO

screenshot:

  $('.ui.green.menu')
    .on('click', '.item', function() {
      if(!$(this).hasClass('dropdown')) {
        $(this)
          .addClass('active')
          .siblings('.item')
            .removeClass('active');
      }
    });
