Re: Setting up jQuery in debian with virtualenv (SOLVED)

[Gary Roach]

Thanks all,

I installed libjs-jquery into my active venv directory. It turns out 
that libjs-jquery actually has 3 different virsions in it . I copied the 
jquery.js  file over to my /static/ file in Eclipse. It works fine.

Mmm why not just download Jquery and create a folder called static 
inside one controlled app, maybe pone inside the project.


If you want, you can use django admin jquery but $ is not available 
because django use django.JQuery for prevent conflict with custom user 
jquery

version of jquery.min.js installed.  I have tried to use a pointer to 
the copy in the djenv directory (Eclipse allows this).  After doing 
this there is a file jquery.min.sj  shows up in 
my static file directory. Unfortunately, when I do a runserver I still 
get a - "GET /static/jquery.min.js HTTP/1.1" 404 1652 - error. What's 
next?
