Moving jQuery to an EXTERNAL folder
I’m not sure what Textpattern uses jQuery for, but I use it around my front-end website. However wouldn’t it be much better outside of the textpattern folder? In say a /scripts/ directory, the same as you have your /files/ and /images/

It’s used by the admin side which is why it’s in the textpattern folder.

I use a symlink to have jquery.js available in both places: the textpattern folder and my usual scripts folder.
Code is topiary

Why can’t you just have jquery.js in both folders, J?

Re: Moving jQuery to an EXTERNAL folder
You can; I just prefer having only one file to keep up to date.

If you don’t want textpattern path to appear in source of your site, you can use apache’s mod_rewrite for redirecting /scripts/jquery.js to /textpattern/jquery.js. At least, if I had such problem, i would use this way

Ah – thanks for that, J.
I thought there might be some sort of technical reason for not duplicating the file.

Re: Moving jQuery to an EXTERNAL folder
Or you can let Google server you jquery— aam_if_host allows you to link to textpattern’s copy during development, and Google’s copy when deployed:
<script type="text/javascript"↵
src="<txp:aam_if_host name="examplesite.dev"><txp:site_url/>textpattern/jquery.js↵
<txp:else/>↵
http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js↵
</txp:aam_if_host>" charset="utf-8"></script>Last edited by johnstephens (2009-08-12 01:55:16)

Re: Moving jQuery to an EXTERNAL folder
or store jQuery inside TxP
aks_cron : Cron inside Textpattern | aks_article : extended article_custom tag
aks_cache : cache for TxP | aks_dragdrop : Drag&Drop categories (article, link, image, file)
