# jQuery execution problem

 * I’m using the jquery.masonry.js script to display thumbnails in a brick style
   grid (see here for an explanation [http://masonry.desandro.com/](http://masonry.desandro.com/)).
 * I’m running into a bit of a strange problem. When the page first loads the thumbnails
   aren’t displayed properly, however when the page is refreshed everything works
   as expected.
 * If I clear the browser cache and reload it goes back to not working, and so on.
 * This makes me think that I’m doing something wrong with the way I’m enqueueing
   my js. This is what I have in my functions file, don’t see too much wrong with
   it.
 *     ```
       if (!is_admin()) {
       	wp_deregister_script( 'jquery' );
       	wp_register_script( 'jquery', get_bloginfo('stylesheet_directory').'/libs/jquery-1.6.1.min.js' );
       	wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery' );
       	wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery_ui', get_bloginfo('stylesheet_directory').'/libs/jquery-ui.custom.min.js' );
       	wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery_masonry', get_bloginfo('stylesheet_directory').'/libs/jquery.masonry.min.js' );
   
       }
       ```
   
 * I’d be interested to know if this problem can be replicated by other users and
   if so if anyone has a clue what might be wrong?

 * You wrap those in a function then execute via `add_action ('wp_enqueue_scripts','
   my_load_scripts');`
 * So:
 *     ```
       function my_load_scripts() {
       if (!is_admin()) {
       	wp_deregister_script( 'jquery' );
       	wp_register_script( 'jquery', get_bloginfo('stylesheet_directory').'/libs/jquery-1.6.1.min.js' );
       	wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery' );
       	wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery_ui', get_bloginfo('stylesheet_directory').'/libs/jquery-ui.custom.min.js' );
       	wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery_masonry', get_bloginfo('stylesheet_directory').'/libs/jquery.masonry.min.js' );
   
       }
       }
       add_action ('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_load_scripts');
       ```
   
 * See if that helps

 * Also, I think `wp_enqueue_script('jquery');` loads the version of jquery bundled
   with WordPress , so you are loading it twice.
