Question

This may sound stupid.

But how do you add Jquery to sublime text 2?

Can’t seem to get it working.

I’ve added this github.

Then created a Jquery folder in my packages.

Finally I added this into my head tags.

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

But still no luck.

Sublime Text 2 uses JavaScript syntax for supporting jQuery. In looking at the Github repo you tried, I’m assuming you’re wanting some sort of a snippet library. I’d recommend this instead: https://github.com/aaronpowell/sublime-jquery-snippets and/or https://github.com/SublimeText/jQuery.

To clarify something else for you, adding:

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

Adds the jQuery library to your HTML page so you can use its methods and functions. It doesn’t add it to Sublime Text 2, but nonetheless it is necessary for the aforementioned reason.
