Where does jquery's getscript() function look when called in an external file?

If i have a file system like:

project -> public -> js -> myfile.js

If i call getScript() in myfile.js where does it look at first? Is this generally true for other things?

For example if I call getScript("myotherfile.js") and myotherfile.js is in the js folder would that be sufficient to access myotherfile.js?

Does the getscript call from my html document or myfile.js?

the path will be taken from the url which is appearing in the browser.

ie)

if the site url is example.com/test1/test2/ and the call is made from this page and if you are mentioning / infront of the js file url then the end result will be like example.com/myotherfile.js. if you are not putting any slash then it will refer like example.com/test1/test2/myotherfile.js.

NOTE: i am not sure if i got your question right.

for more info please read on absolute paths and relative paths
