Have google host Jquery for you

Instead of hosting your Jquery.js file on your site locally, you can now have google host the file for you. Not only will it save you maintenance cost, in theory it should load faster as more and more websites adopt this method.

Just copy and paste the link into your source header and off you go:

JQuery 1.2.3

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.1/jquery.min.js">
</script>


JQuery 1.2.6

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.2.6/jquery.min.js">
</script>


JQuery 1.3.0

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.0/jquery.min.js">
</script>


JQuery 1.3.1

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.1/jquery.min.js">
</script>


JQuery 1.3.2

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js">
</script>
