jquery extenal source?

Hi, I have a problem with exceptions in a company firewall. I would like to bring the Jquery files locally. Is that possible? will it cause any problems? and where does mojoportal reference them?

thanks for any help.

Re: jquery extenal source?

I think you could download JQuery package from their web site and put it into your local folder:  http://jquery.com/

Re: jquery extenal source?

Thanks Joe, that's great. I've followed those instructions and after a bit of messing, the transitions all work now, slideshows etc.

However, my Superfish menu has stopped working, any ideas what I'm missing?

Re: jquery extenal source?

Thanks Joe, have a beer on me. 

my skin is based on the swift blue design. 

I updated changed mojosuperfish.js to mojosuperfish150.js in the scripts/scripts.js but it's still broken, is there somewhere else I should look?

to recap, all was working okay, I then brought jquery onto the same server and referenced it as suggested in Self Hosting jQuery and jQueryUI all jquery transitions are working okay except for my superfish menu, the drop down transitions dont work.

Can you share a link to your site?

Re: jquery extenal source?

Hi Dave,

Thanks for the beer!

You would make this change for superfish in the layout.master file where it references the superfish script.

That should solve it. If not use browser tools to look for any script errors or if it is failing to load any js files using  the network tab in browser tools.

This is assuming that your locally hosted jquery files are for the latest versions of both.

Hope that helps,

Joe

Re: jquery extenal source?

Hi Joe,

The SwiftBlue skin uses a GetScript call in the script.js file to pull in SuperFish so he changed it in the right place. Next version of SwiftBlue will not use GetScript as we don't need to do it that way anymore.

Thanks,
Joe D.

Re: jquery extenal source?

Hi, 

I can't share the site as it's on an internal server I'm afraid.

I had originally downloaded the latest version of jquery (1.91.) I downloaded the 1.8.2 version (same as was being referenced by the skin on google) and the superfish menu now works. 

However my problem now is that the mojo-tabs are not appearing in page settings etc. Could this be becuase I no longer have the jquery ui theme? if so can you tell me which theme swiftblue is set to use?

I've seen the theme set in layout.master before, but that doen't seem to be the case in swiftblue.

Re: jquery extenal source?

Sounds like your jquery stuff is not configured correctly and failing to load. Again you need to use browser tools especially the network tab to find out if it is failing to load any files. Make sure you follow the intsructions carefully for self hosting the jquery files, people often miss the part about renaming the file. Once you configure to load jquery locally you need to verify that it is actually loading.

Also the notes about superfish assume that you are using the latest version of mojoPortal, the updated superfish file would not exist in older versions.
