I have a strange problem that is only happening in a single location. I am using jQuery and my page is working fine in my machine as well as in other locations. In a single location the page isn’t working. I shamelessly asked the client to use Firefox and install Firebug and I am surprised to find that a “jQuery is not a function” error is reported.
It seems that jQuery fails to load. This only happens in the client’s office. The client can successfully run the web application from home. What could have caused such a thing to happen? Can a javascript policy be defined in a LAN to block scripts from specific locations? Could it be something wrong with my code?
I have used both local jquery and google references (not both at the same time):
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://jqueryjs.googlecode.com/files/jquery-1.3.2.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.3.2.min.js"></script>
1) They could be blocking external scripts or certain types of scripts. Are they a Government client per chance?
2) Are you actually loading both scripts in that way? That can cause a conflict.
