Question:
Why do some client workstations get a ‘jQuery is undefined‘ error?
Answer:
jQuery is a fast, small, and versatile library published by the jQuery.org (the jQuery Foundation).The various parts of jQuery are loaded from the Google CDN.
- Test that your client workstation has access to those resources. One sample URL would be:
http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.10.2/jquery-ui.min.js
Of course, the version number will change from time to time.
If the workstation can reach the test URL (above) using Chrome but not IE, then add
- ajax.googleapis.com
to the list of sites in IE‘s trusted site zone.
Additional Comments:
A CDN is a content delivery network. Resources loaded from a CDN are shared by many Internet-enabled applications and cached once for all of them. In fact, once referenced by a workstation, these resources are often cached for 1 year! The system automatically uses SSL to reach the CDN when applicable.
