In FF and all, my javascript works fine. But in Chrome it gives this message:

Resource interpreted as script but transferred with MIME type text/plain.

I have checked all the script tags and they all have the MIME type="text/javascript". It even says so with jquery and jquery ui. What is wrong with Chrome?

What's the problem and the fix for this? Is it something I have to change in the 'options' of the browser or is it from the server, or do I have to tweak my code?

It means that the server is sending a Javascript HTTP response with

Content-Type: text/plain

You need to configure the server to send a JavaScript response with

Content-Type: application/javascript
