On HTML5 Boilerplate they use this code for jQuery:
<!-- Load jQuery with a protocol relative URL; fall back to local if offline -->
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.2/jquery.min.js"></scrip>
<script>
window.jQuery || document.write(
'<script src="js/libs/jquery-1.7.2.min.js"><\/script>')</script>
The question is simple, what's more readable:
if (!jQuery) document.write( -local jQuery- );
or
window.jQuery || document.write( -local jQuery- );
