Download jQuery Mobile
If you want to put jQuery Mobile in your host, you can download the file from jQuerymobile.com .
<head> <meta name = "viewport" content = "width = device-width, initial-scale = 1"> <link rel = "stylesheet" href = "jquery.mobile-1.4.5.css"> <script src = "jquery.js"> </ script> <script src = "jquery.mobile-1.4.5.js"> </ script> </ head>
Tip: Place the downloaded file in the same directory as the web page.
| Do you want to know why you did not insert type = "text / javascript" in the <script> tag? HTML5 already does not need this attribute. JavaScript is the default scripting language for HTML5 in all modern browsers! |
