Karl,
I downloaded the code from http://book.learningjquery.com/2509_06_code/
but still nothing displayed when I clicked button D.
I noticed that the code was referenced to <script src="../scripts/
jquery.1.1.3.js" type="text/javascript"></script>. I googled "query.
1.1.3.js" but couldn't find any result. I downloaded query-1.1.3.js
(noted the dash, query-1 not query.1) but could not see data after
clicking the button. Since I just begin to learn jquery, could you
point out what the issue is? Could you send me jquery.1.1.3.js?
Thanks for your help.
