Question

I’m a complete jquery newbie, but I’m following this tutorial here to get me started.

I had it all working already, but (and I don’t even know what I did) now everything is just going down…

Here’s the snippet (see comments):

$( function() {

  //This one here works and gets executed after the page has loaded
  $.getScript( "some link copied from one of the actual hrefs" );

  //Handler for some links that should load some js from the server and execute it
  $( '#searchresults .pagination a' ).live( 'click',
        function( event ) {
          //This shows the correct link:
          alert( this.href );

          //However, this one doesn't even send a request:
          $.getScript( this.href );

          return false;
        } );
} );

I’m using JQuery 1.5.2.

Also worth noting: I’ve installed FireQuery for debugging purposes, and it just keeps bombarding me with “jQuery(...) called incorrectly” everytime I load the site. When I click one of the links, it gives me “When I called jQuery.get(...) with your args, an error was thrown! TypeError: rootjQuery is undefined“.

After seeing that I thought that my jquery.js file may be corrupt so I freshly downloaded and installed it. No luck there, though…

any help appreciated, thx

Solved it… I had installed FireQuery to make debugging easier. Turns out it corrupted the actual jquery script.

Removed it and now it works just fine.
