Hi,
i'm glad to read that you made it work.
Yes, the jQuery/Prototype is quite a topic.
I did some research in the extensions you have currently installed and
figured out
that most of them are running jQuery in "noConflict" mode by default.
Actually the "noConflict" mode only has to be "activated" once.
For all Ontoprise extensions the ScriptManager [1] takes care of this.
I think that richmedia.js is not the perfect place for making jQuery
work in "noConlict" mode
because this RichMedia version isn't even using the jQuery library.
I assume that it should be the task of each extension to provide
compatibility with other JavaScript libraries.
If the developer does not want to resign the use of $ for jQuery calls
he could wrap his code into the ready-function like this
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
// Do jQuery stuff using $
$("div").hide();
});
But i would really like to read some opinions of other extension
developers about this.
Kind regards,
Benjamin Langguth
PS: Does the HeaderTab extension still work for pages you're using
RichMedia with your modification?
