I have a website using ASP.NET MVC, everything was working fine, but I’d like to add some jquery stuff, then I imported the .js in my master page and when I run it my page doesn’t work in the Internet Explorer anymore, I only get the background color. In Google Chrome it works nice, so in Firefox. Then I got a look in some pages in the web and I realized that they were using:
<script type="text/javascript" src"..."></script>
and not
<script type="text/javascript" src"..." />
like I was. I did this change and it work! But how I can explain it, why the short way won’t work in IE 8?
See this question: Why don't self-closing script tags work?
