• 2 jQuery is JavaScript and is executed by the browser. You don’t require a special server or server settings except for serving the JavaScript files that contain your jQuery code. – Gumbo Commented Oct 20, 2009 at 16:26
• Make sure your path to jQuery doesn't reference your C:\ It should be relative to the page you are loading e.g. "js/jquery.js" – scunliffe Commented Oct 20, 2009 at 16:50

jQuery is a client-side technology, and has nothing to do with your servers beyond residing within them while awaiting delivery.

When you have problems with something "doesnt working", you should describe very clearly what behavior you see and why you feel that it is incorrect. Nobody can help you when you just say "it doesn't work plz help".

In http://reema/jQuery/tots/index.html, firebug indicates an error "$ not defined", so jquery.js is not being loaded.

In the HTML we have <script type="text/javascript" src="../jquery.js"></script> , but when we try to load http://reema/jQuery/jquery.js we get a "Forbidden" page. The forbidden page is different from the "Not Found" page you get if you just make up a URL on reema.

I think the jquery.js file is in the right place, but that it has the wrong permissions on the file system.
