I downloaded the latest Netbeans, placed the following codes but the intellisense is not working.

<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jQuery.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">           
    $(document).ready(function() {
        $("a").click(function() {
            alert("Hello world!");
        });
    });
</script>

I just found this link and should help you out.

Follow these steps

  • In your project folder, create a folder named js, and add it to your project.

  • Locate the jQuery library that you downloaded onto your computer. Copy the file to this js folder

Further more, it says to trigger the intellisense include the library as such

<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery-1.4.2.js"></script>
                                         <!-- ^ Be sure to include the version number -->
<script type="text/javascript">
     // Try it inside here and it should work
</script>

The display of intellisense
