I found the (surprisingly simple) solution to recent versions of jQuery
breaking SRF Exhibit.
All you have to do is replace : rel=exhibit/data with : rel=”exhibit/data”
in the following lines :
(the missing quotes is the issue)
1- Exhibit\exhibit\exhibit-bundle.js(373):
Exhibit.Database._Impl.prototype.loadDataLinks=function(fDone){var
links=SimileAjax.jQuery("head > link[rel=exhibit/data]").get();
2- Exhibit\exhibit\scripts\data\database.js(139): var links =
SimileAjax.jQuery('head > link[rel=exhibit/data]').get();
Source (or rather, inspiration for a solution):
http://www.thalesjacobi.com/Jquery_error_uncaught_exception_Syntax_error_unrecognized_expression
SRF Exhibit works without javascript error with jQuery 1.5.1 and 1.6.1 (two
versions that used to break without quotes).
Adding the quotes doesn't seem to break SRF qith jQuery 1.4.3 either, so the
change seems safe at this time.

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
