I have javascripts folder under root folder , its all workig fine till now. Suddenly it started giving me the following error for all the javascripts under scripts folder.
I the only change i made today is , deployed some files under website root directory which are asp files. I didn’t deploy any files to scripts folder at all.
I saw in firebug net panel and i got the same error there.

You web server is set up to think that .js files are server-side JavaScript and you are in a directory with Execute permission. You need the Execute permission if you have .asp there. Go to your IIS settings and find the list of handlers (not mime-types) and make sure that .js isn’t listed.
Or, you could just move the .js files to a folder without execute permission in IIS.
