Jan Tielens has done it again: Jan has created an addition that makes every SharePoint developer’s life easier and richer with a very simple idea (not so simple to implement, I guess). If you want to use jQuery on a SharePoint page, so far the standard way was to add a Content Editor Web Part on each page and include the jQuery code in there (that’s the short version).
With Jan’s SmartTools jQueryLoader we can now very easily add new code to a page without having to go through those extra hoops: you add your code to a SharePoint Document Library (which is set up when you install the jQueryLoader) and define on which page that code should be included. jQueryLoader does the rest.
We will report back here as we have gathered some experience with the new library. Thank you, Jan.
