[jQuery] styleswitcher problem 2 (aka "$ is not a function")

[Bruce MacKay]

Hi folks,

What I neglected to point out in my first post is that I know jquery 
is being loaded as other function calls (e.g. Shadowbox.init();) 
appearing earlier in the document.ready block are being fired.  I can 
also see the file loaded when I view - through Firebug - the 
javascript files loaded into the page

However, further testing has revealed that it is not styleswitcher 
that is at fault here.  If I make
$("a.link1").bind("click", function() {getFirstPage(this.id)});
the first line in the block with the $ element, I generate the same 
error message - "$ is not a function"

Cheers

Bruce

Hello folks,

I've just belatedly upgraded to the latest version of jQuery and am 
finding old plugins now misbehaving.

I'm having trouble with Kevin Luck's styleswitch.

FIrebug is reporting "$ is not a function" on the first line of this 
code.  I can't understand it - jquery is already loaded.

        $('.styleswitch').bind('click',function()
        {
                switchStylestyle(this.getAttribute('rel'));
                return false;
        });
        var c = readCookie('style');
        if (c) switchStylestyle(c);

[Actually, the first line in Kevin's code is
$('.styleswitch').click(function()

but I have a recollection that .bind('click',...) is now the 
preferred format.]

Can anyone help me here please (or point me at another stylesheet 
switching approach).

Thanks


Bruce
