Re: [Proto-Scripty] Re: Prototype Vs. JQuery
jQuery is DOM-only, and Prototype is general Javascript with classes etc. If you program in Javascript (versus just setting colors positions css etc.), then Prototype is much better choice. For DOM-oriented tasks, both are good. For me as a programmer, Prototype is better, since I can express my intentions more clearly with Object-Oriented approach. For a non-programmer and/or beginner (e.g. web designer) jQuery is easier to use and learn because it is simpler (procedural) and limited to DOM-oriented tasks. izidor On 2.5.2011, at 9:04, kstubs wrote: Well, great feedback so far. As stated, I'm a fan of Proto, and will stay committed. I think mostly because I am just now getting to a level of proficiency that allows me to actually develop, rather than struggle with concepts, how-to's, and basic syntax. I'm not a huge plugin fan, so have been pleased with core Proto library + Scripty and writing my own, but perhaps an argument for JQuery is their wealth of plugins. I state that more as a question since I really do not know how the libraries/plugins/extensions compare in size and usefulness. Anyhow, keep up the great work Proto, and I should also mention that the support that T.J. offers on this group is amazing and well beyond expected.

Re: [Proto-Scripty] Re: Prototype and jQuery
Thank you for the reply. I worked on the repairing the code like you
have shown and it does still allows prototype to take control when loaded.
Could I still be missing something simple?
The three link examples I have shown are to see (1) jQuery happy and
working, (2) prototype doing it's thing, and (3) to show that the
no.conflict script was still allowing jQuery to work but If pototype loaded
at any point jQuery would stop.
I reposted the last link to reflect the suggested changes you made.
jQuery still works until prototype is turned back on.
I have put a lot of work into both functions separately not knowing the
conflict would exist. I have come to far to give up and truly could use
further assistant.

Hi,
It's not clear what's wrong from your message or examples.
Fundamentally, if you want your first link to work when you add
Prototype to the page, just add the `noConflict` call *immediately*
after loading the jquery.js file and include the Prototype file, like
so:
script src=../Scripts/jquery-1.2.6.js type=text/javascript
charset=utf-8/script
scriptjQuery.noConflict();/script
script src=../lightbox/js/prototype.js type=text/javascript/
script
..and then change your two functions that look like this:
$(function () {
if ($.browser.msie $.browser.version 7) return;
// ...
});
...to look like this:
jQuery(function($) {
if ($.browser.msie $.browser.version 7) return;
// ...
});
Note that I've added `$` as an argument. jQuery passes a reference to
itself into `ready` handlers, and so you can use a local alias for it
and not have to change all your code. *Outside* of that `ready`
handler, `$` will refer to Prototype. (Or just use `jQuery` for jQuery
throughout the page, but for large scripts it can be convenient to use
the local alias.)

This shows the jQuery / Prototype noConflict script in action.
(Prototype is disabled)

While the script allows jQuery to operate without Prototype loading,
it still does not function with both.
