Question

I’m making a site where the different pages are brought in by .load(), the problem is that index.php is initially empty and my other efforts have simply loaded the page into itself or left the page empty (pages can still be emptied and loaded from #contentspace though). My current code loads nothing, i’m sure i’m doing several things wrong, I just need to know where to start. do i need to use php for this?

//load page into contentspace by default?
var defaultpage = "blog.php";
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#contentspace").load(defaultpage);
)};

You have a syntax error with your closing of the $(document).ready )}; for one. As you can see in my demo here: http://jsfiddle.net/n1ck/NNpqq/9/ it is requesting the blog.php file.

//load page into contentspace by default?
var defaultpage = "blog.php";
$(document).ready(function() {
    $("#contentspace").load(defaultpage);
});​
