 * Can anybody explain why a script only works when I make a function in my theme
   functions.php to use the jquery from Google (1.10.2)?
 * So it works with
    `<script type='text/javascript' src='//ajax.googleapis.com/
   ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js?ver=1.10.2'></script>`
 * But it does not work with
    `<script type='text/javascript' src='http://mysiteurl/
   wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js?ver=1.10.2'></script>`

 * Probably because the default WordPress jQuery library is “no conflict mode” (
   look [here](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_enqueue_script#jQuery_noConflict_Wrappers)
   for all details).
 * If your script starts with this:
 *     ```
       $(document).ready(function(){
           // ...code here...
       ```
   
 * Then you’ll need to change it to this if you use WordPress’ default jQuery library:
 *     ```
       jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
           // ...code here....
       ```
