[jQuery] $.getScript Must Take .js File?

[jQuery] $.getScript Must Take .js File?


I am using codeigniter and it forms urls like this:
http://mydomain/index.php/system/edit_js
I'm trying to call $.getScript by going:
$.getScript("http://mydomain/index.php/system/edit_js") but I get a
404 not found error. I pasted the url in my webbrowser and it works
just fine.
Is there any way to make this work?
