PAY ATTENTION!

You can't include Github scripts directly from Github after this change.

We added the X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff header to our raw URL responses way back in 2011 as a first step in combating hotlinking. This has the effect of forcing the browser to treat content in accordance with the Content-Type header. That means that when we set Content-Type: text/plain for raw views of files, the browser will refuse to treat that file as JavaScript or CSS.

But there are alternatives. Check my answer to this question.

I am trying to include a JavaScript file from GitHub into a local HTML file for testing (like an image found on the internet: <img src=http://...>).

I would like something like this:

<script src=https://github.com/[username]/[repository]/blob/master/public/[fileName].js></script>

The problem is that this doesn't work.

How can I do this?
