Re: [jQuery] Running jQuery when already have $() from prototype

[Geoff Knutzen]

But *I think* the old version handled this different if you included prototype.js on your page before you included jquery.js See http://jquery.com/docs/PrototypeAndJQuery/ (I am not totally sure on this, I only used jquery for a day or so before I realized that 1.0 had been released)   I did find this http://proj.jquery.com/dev/bugs/bug/137/ “Prototype Support Plugin” I think this means that this is a know issue, and will be dealt with someday, but again, I am unsure. I do hope that it will be dealt with, as this would save ME a whole bunch of recoding in the next few days.   Am I way off base here? Wouldn’t be the first time.   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Beppu Sent: Friday, September 01, 2006 3:52 PM To: jQuery Discussion. Subject: Re: [jQuery] Running jQuery when already have $() from prototype   I wanted to try to use Prototype and jQuery together, also, but it didn't work out too well for me. The main show stopper was that a lot of Prototype-based code will assume that the result of $() will be a DOM element.  With jQuery's $(), you will usually get a jQuery object back (so you can do all that cool method chaining).  Unfortunately, the methods and attributes of a jQuery object are not the same as the methods and attributes of a DOM element object, so you're screwed. This was my experience pre-1.0, but I can't imagine the situation being very different now.  I don't want to have to make this conclusion, but it seems like Prototype and jQuery are fundamentally incompatible, because they both want $(). --- Now, it's quite possible that I'm doing something really stupid or overlooking something obvious.  If that's the case, I hope someone can clue me in.

I can't seem to get it to function right. It did seem to be okay with the old release.   I asked this same question a day or two ago and got no reply. I think it probably got lost in the confusion of the new release.   It is really limiting my implementation right now. I am hoping to figure this out in the next day or so. Is this working for anyone now?
