Hm, that makes sense. So, I suppose I could do something like....
jQuery.noConflict();
var doc = window.content.document;
jQuery("#id", doc);
Which would solve the issue that jQuery doesn't live in the HTML anymore
(and lives in the browser). But how would this work on .ajax functions? Do I
have to edit the instantiation/references in the first couple lines of
jQuery to point somewhere other than window? Or will functions like .ajax
(that don't browse the DOM) only work when there is a document to access (as
opposed to on load of Firefox)?
Thanks-
