 * I have been trying to get Jquery to work for a while now and I still have no 
   luck.
 * Here is my code
 *     ```
       function load_jQuery() { // load external file  
           wp_register_script('jquery', ("http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.2/jquery.min.js"), false);
           wp_enqueue_script('jquery');
         }  
       add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'load_jQuery');
       ```
   
 * Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

 * First, be aware that if you call `wp_enqueue_script()` with `jquery` as the first
   argument, you’ll get WordPress’ built-in jQuery, even if you’ve registered another
   script with the same handle. If you need to use a specific version of jQuery,
   you’ll need to register with a different handle:
 *     ```
       wp_register_script( 'robert-jquery', ("http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.2/jquery.min.js"), false);
       wp_enqueue_script( 'robert-jquery' );
       ```
   
 * Beyond that, though, your code itself looks fine. Can you post a link to a page
   where jQuery isn’t loading properly?
