CDN - Possible to specify google's CDN for JQuery

[Richard]

Hi,

Is it possible to specify another CDN for JQuery?

The Google CDN is pretty well used, so i would like to use that CDN for jQuery - as many people may already have that in their cache?

Thanks,


Richard

Hello Richard,

You should be able to use Google's CDN for JQuery if you prefer by alterning the JQuery scripts registration in the following way:

<telerik:RadScriptManager runat="server" ID="RadScriptManager1">
    <Scripts>

 <asp:ScriptReference Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI" Name="Telerik.Web.UI.Common.Core.js" />
        <asp:ScriptReference Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI" Name="Telerik.Web.UI.Common.jQuery.js"
         Path="<http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js" />
        <asp:ScriptReference Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI" Name="Telerik.Web.UI.Common.jQueryPlugins.js" />
    </Scripts>
</telerik:RadScriptManager>

If doing this, what best practice do you suggest for replacing the lines:
 

$telerik.$ = jQuery.noConflict(true);

if(typeof(Sys)!=='undefined')Sys.Application.notifyScriptLoaded();

Thanks

Hello Paul,

In fact those are not needed when using external jQuery scripts.

I hope this helps.

Hi,
do i still need to add reference to 

Telerik.Web.UI.Common.jQueryInclude.js

Hello Richard,

No, you don't need jQueryInclude.js when you're using the "regular" jQuery. It's only needed when you want to expose the embedded jQuery version to the global $ variable.

I hope this helps.
