Why am I getting "jquery.mobile-1.3.2.min.map file not found" message in Chrome
jquery-mobile
Solution
Probably your Google Chrome DevTools has enabled the option "Enable source maps". Check your Settings menu, then General and Sources.
A source map file it's a way to map a combined/minified file back to an unbuilt state. When you build for production, along with minifying and combining your JavaScript files, you generate a source map which holds information about your original files. When you query a certain line and column number in your generated JavaScript you can do a lookup in the source map which returns the original location. Developer tools (currently WebKit nightly builds, Google Chrome, or Firefox 23+) can parse the source map automatically and make it appear as though you're running unminified and uncombined files.

Problem
I'm using these three CDN files, as recommended on getting started in JQM documentation: ``` <!DOCTYPE html> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title></title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.3.2/jquery.mobile-1.3.2.min.css" /> <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.min.js"></script> <script src="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.3.2/jquery.mobile-1.3.2.min.js"></script> ``` I'm perplexed why I'm getting a 404 Not found status under the Network tab in Chrome. Seems to be looking jquery mobile min.map file. I don't see this in Firefox. Any thoughts as to why it's looking for this file?
