Figured it out. It is pretty common for jQuery to conflict with Prototype,
it seems. See http://docs.jquery.com/Using_jQuery_with_Other_Libraries
Just insert a script a jQuery.noConflict() call on every page that loads
jQuery. Then, wrap your jQuery code in an environment like:
// Put all your code in your document ready area
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
// Do jQuery stuff using $
$("div").hide();
});
Or like this in parenscript:
(ps:ps
(ps:chain (j-query document)
(ready (lambda ($)
"simple"))))
I suppose the best idea is to define a script that just executes the
noConflict function (which you include in your dependencies) and a macro
environment for re-enabling jQuery's $ syntax. Hope this helps others.
