DataTables 1.10.2 Having Troubles loading jquery.dataTables.css from Directory.

New Datatables user here, i have just uploaded the Datatables directory onto my server, they are in the /var/www directory of my website. However the CSS formatting is not working on the html table, directly.

I tried the Datatables debugger, it brings the following error: "DataTables debug bookmarlet: jQuery not loaded on this page, therefore no DataTables :-("

However as far as i can see the javascript is properly declared in my script, but to no avail:

<html>
<!-- DataTables CSS -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/DataTables-1.10.2/media/css/jquery.dataTables.css">

<!-- jQuery -->
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf8" src="/DataTables-1.10.2/media/js/jquery.js"></script>

<!-- DataTables -->
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf8" src="/DataTables-1.10.2/media/js/jquery.dataTables.js"></script>
<body>
    <script>
        $(document).ready(function() {
            $('#table_id').DataTable({
                "lengthMenu": [[10, 25, 50, - 1], [10, 25, 50, "All"]], 
                "iDisplayLength": -1
            });
        });
    </script>
    <table id="table_id" class="display">
        <thead>
            <tr>
                <th>ART NO.</th>
                <th>ARTIKELNAME</th>
                <th>EAN</th>
                <th>SHOP 5</a></th>
                <th>LETZTE UPDATE</th>
            </tr>
        </thead>

.....

linking directly to a CDN brings a formatted table result back, any ideas what i am doing wrong?

Thanks in advance!

    Your HTML looks invalid. There is no head or body tag.

    I cut half of the script off as there is a php function running inside the html tags that produces the html table output.

    When using the CDN links the site is properly rendered, but when i use the locally installed files, the html doesnt render with the DataTables CSS formatting. I debugged the working version, the fdebug file number is oraqur - its only when i use the locally installed files that the html doesnt render at all.

    I'd probably need to be able be able to see the page in order to be able to understand what is going wrong. Can you give me a link? Are there any errors reported in the console in your browser?
