So, I always load jQuery in the header of my site...

Now, I'm having the problem where JS down lower in the page (body) won't end up working, unless I add the same jQuery library right before the call.

for example, I want this to run (this is located in the body):

 <script type="text/javascript">
         $(document).ready(function() {
    
[INDENT][INDENT]alert("hello");
[/INDENT][/INDENT]        });
    </script>

It will NOT run unless I paste this right about this $(document).ready( call... :

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.5.0/jquery.min.js"></script>

However, that's ALREADY in the header - and I know it because I can view source on the page and see it twice, clearly...

What is going on here?

Thanks

Is it returning any errors when it's not working? Can you give us more context, the code looks fine.

Zero errors in firefox, a handful of CSS related warnings is all. It's literally blowing my mind... haha. There are no iframes or anything like that.

I'm not sure what type of context you'd be interested in? I'm by far no JS professional, I'm good with HTML, CSS, and PHP...

Thanks,

Arg, ok I think I found it... maybe. I have some old old JS calls in here, if I delete them, the problem goes away. They were earlier in the page as a document.ready call, and when those got caught up - I guess it didn't continue down the page.

It's really odd though, because I don't see any errors in firefox, which I usually would.

Thanks for helping me debug though, I suppose, ha!
