Superscript citation package not working

[SoggyBottoms]

I have the following document:

\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage[superscript]{cite}

\begin{document}

Super important stuff \cite{1}.

\begin{thebibliography}

\bibitem{1} Citation

\end{document}

I don't get superscripted citations however, they just stay in-line. Also, I can't add or remove anything in my document until I remove the \usepackage[superscript]{cite}
preamble. If I don't then it just keeps building the same file I have above. What is wrong?

Anyone have any idea? I still can't get it to work.
