When enhancing MOSS publising pages using jQuery, I hit the following speed bump:

Server Error in ‘/’ Application.

Parser Error

It was easy enough to fix (h/t to my colleague, Uday Ethirajulu).  Be sure that the jQuery code lives inside the “PlaceHolderAdditionalPageHead” as shown:

<asp:Content ContentPlaceholderID="PlaceHolderAdditionalPageHead" runat="server">

<script

    type="text/javascript"

    src="/jQuery/jquery-1.4.min.js">

</script>

<script type="text/javascript">

  $(document).ready(function() {

   // Brilliant jQuery stuff goes here.

   });

</script>

</end>
