  • 0

I am using Jquery for getting a json object from a solr server. When I run my html file with Tomcat it is runns fine but when I embed it with my project which is running on weblogic it gets this error: (debugging done through firebug)

$ is not defined
$(document).ready(function(){

Why do I get this error when I embed it in my project?

This is the contents of my <head> tag, It is how I include jquery.js:

<head>
  <title>Search Result  </title>
  <style>
    img{ height: 150px; float: left; border: 3;}
    div{font-size:10pt; margin-right:150px;
    margin-left:150px; }
  </style>

  <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.6.1.js"></script>
  <script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function(){       //Error happens here, $ is not defined.

    });
  </script>
</head>

    Did you load jQuery in head section? Did you load it correctly?

    <head>
   <script src="scripts/jquery.js"></script>
   ...
</head>

    This code assumes jquery.js is in scripts directory. (You can change file name if you like)

    You can also use jQuery as hosted by Google:

    <head>
   <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
   ...
</head>

    As per your comment:

    Apparently, your web server is not configured to return jQuery-1.6.1.js on requesting /webProject/jquery-1.6.1.js. There may be numerous reasons for this, such as wrong file name, folder name, routing settings, etc. You need to create another question and describe your 404 in greater details (such as local file name, operation system, webserver name and settings).

    Again, you can use jQuery as provided by Google (see above), however you still might want to find out why some local files don’t get served on request.
