How do I link a jQuery file into my HTML document? I don't get the //code.jquery.com.. stuff.

Also do I have to specify the type text/javascript ?

Go to the Jquery website and follow the instructions for using the CDN is my advise, Then you copy and paste the CDN link under your CSS link on your index page, and put your JQ page link inbetween your script tags.....simple as that!

Vote my up to the top if ya can :-)
