Thanks for taking the time to contribute to the jQuery project by writing a bug report.

Your bug report doesn't contain enough information to give a hint on what you are doing. I made this test case which works as expected.

So please submit a reduced test case, which reproduces the issue you are experiencing, on http://jsfiddle.net. So that we can investigate this issue further.

Also note that there were some bugs with loading "local" (file:///) files in 1.5, which have been fixed, so please also try with the current jQuery WIP version as described in the link below.

How to report bugs

I'm loading a local file, i can't put it on jsfiddle. Other people are also experiencing the same issue. check http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4882774/jquery-1-5-load-not-working.

Just try to load a local file in 1.5 using $('body').load('test.html'); and you will see it's not working.

btw, i'm linking from http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jQuery/jquery-1.5.min.js. Assuming they have the very latest.

Linking from http://code.jquery.com/jquery-git.js works. So i'm assuming you fixed this issue. But How can i link to the latest jquery release from from google or Microsoft cdn. When will they receive the latest update.

Thanks for reporting back and providing more information. This was indeed already reported and fixed in jquery-git. As soon as jQuery 1.5.1 comes out you will be able to link to it via CDN.
