Running jquery gallery makes links unclickable

I'm trying to build responsive webpage based on Zurb Foundation framework. Everything worked fine until I tried to add nanoGallery which uses jQuery too. When I add gallery scripts, top menu generated by Foundation script becomes unclickable, :hover works fine but if you click on it, nothing happens. Fell free to visit the exact page at http://emfoto.filipsvoboda.net/presentation.html.
This is how I'm trying to call each script:
<script src="js/jquery.js"></script>
<script src="/js/foundation.min.js"></script>
<script>
jQuery(document).foundation();
</script>
<script src="third.party/transit/jquery.transit.min.js"></script>
<script src="third.party/hammer.js/hammer.min.js"></script>
<script src="third.party/imagesloaded/imagesloaded.pkgd.min.js"></script>
<script src="jquery.nanogallery.js"></script>
<script>
jQuery("#nanoGallery").nanoGallery({
kind:'flickr',
(..)
thumbnailHoverEffect:[{'name':'borderLighter'}],
thumbnailLabel:{display:false},
});
</script>
I've already tried changing order of those scripts, but that does not seem to help.
EDIT: It does seem to work properly in IE10, however in Chrome-based browsers it still does not work.
EDIT2: After continual fiddling with the code it seems obvious that the presence of the gallery itself on that page causes the bug. Order of scripts doesn't seem to make any difference, as long as the gallery is not displayed, Foundation works correctly and links does work.
EDIT3: Updated the code, stripped it down and changed the order of scripts. I've added simple "a" link to the sample page and it doesn't work either.
EDIT4: I've searched for event.preventDefault() and it is present in one of the *.js files for the gallery. I've contacted the author and if we get to any solution I will post it here.
Thank you for your help.

This issue has been fixed in nanoGALLERY v4.2.1:
https://github.com/Kris-B/nanoGALLERY/releases/tag/4.2.1

I compared chrome and firefox requests and responses using Developer Extensions (chrome) and Firebug (firefox) for the info shown in Net panel. I'm not sure if the file that chrome doesn't find can be the cause of the problem but wanted to point out that difference.
chrome
http://emfoto.filipsvoboda.net/third.party/hammer.js/hammer.min.map (Not found)
http://emfoto.filipsvoboda.net/third.party/hammer.js/hammer.min.js
firefox http://emfoto.filipsvoboda.net/third.party/hammer.js/hammer.min.js

Atleast for time being, you can have a workaround for this by having a click handler which will read the url and take the page to that url.
$(function () {
$("a").click(function () {
var url = $(this).attr("href");
window.location.href = url;
});
});

How do I prioritize which part of a page should load 1st?

Okay guys I have a website that has a lights off for videos source code: http://www.megaptery.com/allofthelights/
An organic tabs for videos using Jquery
and a 2buttons which onclick it changes the CSS of the whole page you know it's kinda like a theme for the page
Here is an example of one of my page:
http://myanimesekai.com/Watch/Noucome-Episode-9
okay all of them works perfectly fine on my laptop all of them IE, Mozilla and the OLD Google Chrome.
But Then I tried it on my Brothers Laptop BUT his Google Chrome is the latest Google Chrome the Google Chrome where the scrollbar changed. The problem is that the Lights off feature is malfunctioning it doesn't turn off the video only. But the Organic Tabs and The 2buttons works perfectly fine. So I tried it on an internet Cafe and this is where I was really frustrated their Google Chrome is also updated and then both 3 of them were malfunctioning then after a while I tried them on Mozilla and all of them worked perfectly fine and so I have an Idea maybe it's becaused it took time for the Jquery and my Javascript to load which is why all 3 of them were malfunctioning.
so my question is is there a way for me to make my page load the jquery and javascript 1st? or am I missing something that the new Google Chrome requires? this is really frustrating me
oh BTW the 2buttons that changes the CSS are the B and M squares Below the facebook page

There are so many errors on this page (http://myanimesekai.com/Watch/Noucome-Episode-9) that any one error can cause the page not to work.
You need to clean up your code quite a bit:
<script src="http://myanimesekai.com/javascript.js"></script>
<script src='http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.1/jquery.min.js'></script>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://myanimesekai.com/organictabs.jquery.js"></script>
You are calling jQuery in your javascript.js file. The jQuery library has not been declared before your scripts. You need to restructure your code to (you only need one version of jQuery):
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://myanimesekai.com/javascript.js"></script>
<script src="http://myanimesekai.com/organictabs.jquery.js"></script>
This will fix some errors. I suggest that you look at the console for further errors and fix them.

javascript breaking when adding this code

JavaScript isn't my strongest skill, but I'll do my best to explain, so here it goes. I had someone create a slideup menu on my website and im also using jplayer music player.
Now everything works fine until I add this script at the top. For some reason it stops the slideup from working. This is the script that stops the slideup.
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7/jquery.min.js"></script>
If someone could tell me what im doing wrong that would be great.

Try using this to include your jQuery: <script type="text/javascript" src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
That is taken from the jplayer demo page at http://www.jplayer.org/latest/demo-01-video/ - line 22

you are not importing jQuery correctly. After consulting Google HOsted Libraries page (https://developers.google.com/speed/libraries/devguide?hl=es&csw=1#jquery) seems that the version to be imported should be 1.7.0 (Three digits, not two), try it!
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.0/jquery.min.js"></script>

JavaScript not working in Mobile Safari

Ok, so the problem is that JS code that I am using will not work in mobile Safari straight away. Everything works fine in desktop safari, chrome, etc.
In mobile safari (iphone 4 and ipod touch 2nd gen tested) the page is completely blank. BUT if you navigate to another page and then click back, it loads fine!
Could someone tell me what on earth is happening here?
Thanks :)
Here is a link to the site
http://osmithcouk.ipage.com/exposed/index.php
and here is JS code
NOTE I HAVE EDITED THE CODE SINCE RYUUTATSUO RECOMMENDED THAT I DO SO but still not working :(
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".slidingDiv").hide();
$(".show_hide").show();
$('.show_hide').click(function(){
$(".slidingDiv").slideToggle();
});
});
And here is the HTML that goes alongside that.
<b><?php include 'headline1.txt'; ?></b>
<div class="slidingDiv">
<?php include 'story1.txt'; ?> Hide story...</div>
And the CSS for slidingDiv and show_hide.
.slidingDiv {
background-color: #FFFFFF;
padding:20px;
margin-top:10px;
}
.show_hide {
display:none;
}
Thank you very much for all your help :)

Actually, the problem is that you have to add query string parameters in order to get it rendered on mobile. For example
script src="js/Common.js" type="text/javascript"
Should be replaced by
script src="js/Common.js?v=1.1" type="text/javascript"
and you can also supply version in comments of your js file so that client can come to know that he has latest version of JS files.

I don't really know if this is the proper protocol but I have fixed it myself so thought I would post my answer!
It really is simple, I just moved the JS to below the .CSS. Apparently Safari has a problem rendering jQuery before CSS :s

use
jQuery(window).load()
instead of
jQuery(document).ready()

$(document).ready doesn't work in IE

In my page there is two links, register and login.
The important one now is register. When I click it, it loads a .tpl file using jquery load function. In this tpl file I include a new js file with <script> ofcourse, and it works perfectly in safari, ff, opera and chrome, but of course, Why should it be working in IE?
So my question is, what should I do to make it working in IE? I think if I put the js in the .tpl file that would solve my problem, but if there is a better solution, I'd like to hear it. No this didn't help, so I guess there is no solution : D
Now I tried it with a simple alert, it worked perfectly.
My problem has changed. If there is a $(document).ready in the JS file the IE "ignores" the whole script, but if there isn't it works perfectly. The thing is that i need that document ready. : D
Thanks.

If the script is "ignored" if there's a $(document)ready then there may be an error in that block of the script and your IE is set to stop running scripts on error.
Try to simplify your issue a bit to try to pin point it. For example, copy the following code into a brand new html file and try it out (NOTE: you'll need to change the src path to the jquery.js file.)
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
alert('test');
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
Does the above work in IE for you or does it get ignored as well (again, after you update the path to the jquery.js file)?
If this works but it doesn't in your scenario, check your page's source in IE for how everything is loaded. The only time I've seen $(document).ready() throw an error is when the jquery.js file is not loaded prior to it or there's a conflict with the $() function...in which case you'll need the noConflict() function.

Make sure that the script tag is not in this form:
<script ... />
IE only accepts:
<script>...</script>

IE considers injection of script tags as a security issue. Change the script tag to:
document.write("<scri" + "pt src=...></scri" + "pt>");

Are you sure that your loaded javascript executes properly in IE. Perhaps it have a javascript quirk that is throwing an error and is making it appear as if it's not loading?
To test this out, non-dynamically including the javascript (include it in the page or similar) and set up a break-point in the script code and step through ot make sure it executes all the way through. Firebug would be an excellent tool for this.
I realise this is grasping at straws, but give it a try perhaps?
