This should clear it: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/HTML/Element/script - See the examples bit – techfoobar Jul 01 '15 at 12:12

Yes. It's not self closing element. You need to close it. – Bhojendra Rauniyar Jul 01 '15 at 12:12

Pick a CDN, copy-pasta their code: https://developers.google.com/speed/libraries/#jquery – Alex K. Jul 01 '15 at 12:21

No. The way to include a javascript file is using <script src="file.js"></script>
The contents of file.js should not be surrounded with <script> tags as that is html code.

Yea sorry i was mistaken, didn't think external javascript counts but apperantly it does.
<script src="myScript.js"> code in here </script>
