You can reference jQuery using a normal <script src="..."></script> tag.

The way you're referencing it requires the script manager. That's basic XML just looking at the parent child relationship you've got. You don't need any of the stuff you've put there. Why use .Net to include a script reference unless you have some very complicated architecture and a need to minimize script downloads? Just include the script naturally as if it were an html page in the head of your page (or MasterPage if you're using them).

<script type="text/javascript" src="/JavaScript/jquery-1.3.2-vsdoc2.js"></script>

If your JavaScript directory is not at the root in this fashion you can use the VirtualPathUtility.ToAbsolute(path) class/method.
