just a quick question: why jquery loads in single posts and not in index?

it adds a great load to the page (about 35kb); I'm currently optimizing my blog, and noticed this using YSlow...

is it necessary for single or I can get rid of it? how?

thanks in advance for help! :-)

if you look at the index the jquery is not loaded; running YSlow I notice it's loaded on single posts...

Well it's got to be something to do with a plugin that is only displaying info on single posts requiring the jquery library

On single you have this in your head:
```
<script src="http://www.adverbox.com/admin/wordpress/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js?ver=1.2.6" type="text/javascript">
</script>
<script src="http://www.adverbox.com/admin/wordpress/wp-includes/js/jquery/suggest.js?ver=1.1b" type="text/javascript">
```
I've got to run and finish cooking dinner right now so I can't be sure what is calling the jquery, but I can only assume it's a widget or plugin that only comes into effect on the single page.

That does make me thing that it's probably necessary, but I can't be sure.
