Loading Ace Editor from CDN

Question

I'm loading the Ace editor from the Cloudfront CDN like it says to on their sample page, but it's failing to find the haml and stylus syntax highlighters.

%script(src="//d1n0x3qji82z53.cloudfront.net/src-min-noconflict/ace.js")

Most of the themes and syntax highlighters work, but these two are missing:

GET http://d1n0x3qji82z53.cloudfront.net/src-min-noconflict/mode-stylus.js 403 (Forbidden) ace.js:1
GET http://d1n0x3qji82z53.cloudfront.net/src-min-noconflict/mode-haml.js 403 (Forbidden) 

The files are present in the builds repo. Is there a more up to date CDN, or do I just have to host it myself?

Answer 1

I found that using the OP's CDN also lead to problems loading different language in post facto. This lead me using the same source as ACE's kitchen sink demo:

//ajaxorg.github.io/ace-builds/src-min-noconflict/ace.js

which is perhaps rude, as it effectively uses github as a CDN...

I built a nice little jsfiddle to demonstrate loading in different modes after initial editor construction.
