Question

I am having trouble linking to a jquery library and am wondering if someone might be able to point out what I am doing wrong.

My html page is a locally hosted Sharepoint site here:

http://server/sites/blog/dude/Pages/MyPage.html

and my jquery library is located here:

http://server/sites/blog/style%20library/js/jquery-1.7.2.min.js

I it works fine if I reference the whole jquery address like so:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src='http://server/sites/blog/style%20library/js/jquery-1.7.2.min.js'></script>

But it isn’t located when I do this:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src='../../blog/style%20library/js/jquery-1.7.2.min.js'></script>

Am I using the “folder up” syntax incorrectly perhaps?

Answer 1

Just put /sites/blog/style%20library/js/jquery-1.7.2.min.js

The leading slash tells the browser to go to the host and start from there.
