The $ is just an alias for jQuery. That means you can use jQuery() instead of $(). Or you could even create a different alias like this.
var $j = jQuery; Then you can use $j() instead of $(). And just to be safe you might want to call jQuery.noConflict() to restore the $ back to its original owner. I just re-opened up my blog with a post about this yesterday. http://blog.brandonaaron.net/2007/05/29/using-jquery-with-other-libraries/ -- Brandon Aaron On 5/30/07, MrNase <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I just released a Farbtastic Widget on Widgetbox.com During the creation of the Widget, the website allows you to specify parameters. They all look like: var userlanguage = ${config.userlanguage}; Here is the problem: Because of the $, jQuery doesn't work anymore. Is there a way to fix it? Their help says: These parameters are passed via the query string: http://yourwidget.com?param=value How (besides $()) can I access the parameters? (The Url to the widget is: http://www.widgetbox.com/widget/farbtastic-widget )
