FWIW JavaScript is notorious for being temperamental and causing problems
when you start mixing JS libraries. You are using third party JS libraries
along with the libraries used by CF. And practically speaking it is
impossible to foresee and eliminate all possible conflicts when using
multiple JS libraries at the same time, with or without ColdFusion. This is
par for the course. I cannot tell you how many times I have run into
problems when using multiple JS libraries/apps/plugins.

Seriously though, comparing front end web development to Photoshop or
Illustrator, where Adobe can control all aspects of the users/developers
experience, is moot. Adobe has no way of foreseeing what you use in a web
development project, let alone being able to find work-a-rounds for them.
A lot of time the latest versions of popular JS apps come out after CF is
released.

Believe me, I understand your frustration... I wrestle with it on a regular
basis.

Just sayin'...

G!
