Working with jQuery when there is no Internet connection

I am completely new to jQuery. When working with jQuery, I disconnected the Internet to check if my webpage works fine without an Internet connection. It displayed some thing which is not required. When I saw the source code, it displayed:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://jquery.com/jquery-wp-content/themes/jquery/css/base.css?v=1">

So I downloaded the code and kept it in my root folder. Still it's not working well. Can we work with jQuery while offline?

Here is my code:

<!doctype html>

<!-- [if IE 7 ]>                  <html class="no-js ie ie7 lte7 lte8 lte9" lang="en-US"> <![endif] -->
<!-- [if IE 8 ]>                  <html class="no-js ie ie8 lte8 lte9" lang="en-US"> <![endif] -->
<!-- [if IE 9 ]>                  <html class="no-js ie ie9 lte9>" lang="en-US"> <![endif] -->
<!-- [if (gt IE 9)|!(IE)]> <!-- > <html class="no-js" lang="en-US"> <!--<![endif] -->

    <head>
        <meta charset="utf-8">

        <!--[if lt IE 7]><link rel="stylesheet" href="css/font-awesome-ie7.min.css"><![endif]-->
        <script>try{Typekit.load();}catch(e){}</script>
        <meta name="generator" content="WordPress 3.5.1" />
    </head>

    <body>

        <![endif]-->

        <header>
            <section id="global-nav">

                    <div class="constrain">
                        <ul class="links">
                            <li><a href="home.jsp">Home</a></li>
                            <li class="dropdown"><a href="CreatPatient.jsp">Patient</a>
                                <ul>
                                    <li><a href="CreatePatient.jsp">Create Patient</a></li>

                                </ul>

                                <ul>

                                    <li><a href="EditAppointments.jsp/">Edit Appointments</a></li>
                                </ul>
                            </li>
                            <li class="dropdown"><a href="#">Reports</a>
                                <ul>
                                    <li><a href="PreOperative.jsp">Pre Operative</a></li>
                                    <li><a href="IntraOperative.jsp">Intra Operative</a></li>
                                    <li><a href="PostOperative.jsp">PostOperative</a></li>
                                </ul>
                            </li>
                        </ul>
                    </div>
                </nav>
            </section>
        </header>
    </body>

</html>

When I remove this line:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://jquery.com/jquery-wp-content/themes/jquery/css/base.css?v=1">

It creates a problem.

I have downloaded jQuery and kept on the desktop. The HTML file is also on the desktop. Why is it not working?

Yes, it's possible. You've mentioned that you downloaded the file - that's a good first step, but you also have to change all the href and src references.

For example,

<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://jquery.com/jquery-wp-content/themes/jquery/css/base.css?v=1">

should become

<link rel="stylesheet" href="base.css">

Also remember to get the offline version of the jQuery JS library, too:
Download jquery.js, put it in your root folder & reference it:

<script src="jquery-1.9.1.min.js"></script>

And if you want it in a subdirectory:

<script src="[subdirectory-name]/jquery-1.9.1.min.js"></script>

Remember that both files need to be offline and in your working local directory. This means that you cannot remove the stylesheet nor the jQuery JS library. Keep both of them, in the local formats I've mentioned above.

Also, putting the <script> tag in the <head> is bad practice; move it just before the </body> tag instead.


Your code should now look (in short, note that I haven't put much) like:

...
<html class="no-js" lang="en-US">
<head>
    ...
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="base.css">
    ...
</head>
<body>
    ...
    <script src="jquery.min.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

Again, make sure that base.css and jquery.min.js are the exact file names and are in the same folder as this .html file

It will not work if you don't have an Internet connection. To work locally you should copy jquery.js to your local directory and use a relative path.

<script src="/jquery/1.5/jquery.min.js"></script>
