Will jQuery work on a CD distribuited "website"?

Question

Sadly I have to make a website (so to speak website) that can be placed on a CD. My question is, can I use JavaScript and jQuery?

Some of the people who get the CD might have IE6 on Win XP installed.

Thank you.

Answer 1

Yes. jQuery explicitly supports IE6, and IE6 supports JavaScript (it would have to, otherwise jQuery couldn't support it) although it has some bugs.

Answer 2

You can put a website on to CD, and javascript/jquery should work fine. But beware that you'll only be able to have static resources: that is every request must be for a physical asset that exists on the CD. I.e you wont be able to have pages rendered dynamically in response to a request, and I'm pretty sure that you won't be able to make ajax requests too.
