Manually load (Google's) Latest jQuery in Wordpress

 / Published in: PHP
 

URL: http://encosia.com/2008/12/10/3-reasons-why-you-should-let-google-host-jquery-for-you/

The URL is normative and has nothing to do with the Source. Because so many blog posts with so few solutions (either outmoded or simply not relevant).

This allows you to prevent Wordpress's $script->add(); function (in "wp-includes/script-loader.php") from loading jQuery; then you can load Google's stored copy of jQuery (with gzip, so that you get the as-advertised 19kb, depending on server specifications, though).

Expand | Embed | Plain Text 
  1. <?php wp_deregister_script('jquery'); ?>
  2. <?php wp_head(); ?>
  3. <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js"></script>
