I have the following directory structure
*application
*media
*system
I place my js files inside the media/js folder but when i try to include the js file in my view
<script type="text/javascript" src="media/js/common_functions.js"></script>
It gives the following error
Resource interpreted as Script but transferred with MIME type text/html
and it does not load the js file.. even the jquery file.. can sombody tell me what is the problem. what I may be doing wrong ?
try this:
$config['javascript_location'] = 'http://localhost/codeigniter/themes/js/jquery/';
To initialize the jQuery class manually in your controller constructor, use the $this->load->library function:
$this->load->library('jquery');
try this:
<script type="text/javascript" src="../../media/js/common_functions.js"></script>
For standard and useful approach, try this one:
<script type="text/javascript" src="<?=base_url()?>media/js/common_functions.js"></script>
freaking hell..! wasted like half an hr on this. I used the url guide to remove index.php. Now I had my stuff in public directory in the root folder with .htaccess file as follows
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]
So just make sure the folder is included in the RewriteCond $1 ... line as follows
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|**public**|robots\.txt)
Hope this helps someone.
