"should be in the head area of the document." No it shouldn't. You can put it in the head if you like, but Javascript blocks downloads, it's ideally a behavior layer that enhances presentation, etc. Much has been written about putting js at the close of the body as a best practice: http://developer.yahoo.com/performance/rules.html#js_bottom
Whether at the top or bottom, your script will fail if you don't include it in the correct order. room.js requires jQuery, but is being requested before the jQuery library.
