jQuery.noConflict();- used when other libraries such as Mootools,
Protoype etc are present. Used to avoid conflicts of multiple libraries
using "$". Thus the reasoning behind "jquery" in longhand instead of
"$". If noConflict() exists all jquery functions need to be longhand.
"is not a function" error is usually result of not having jquery.js, or
plugin where function exists, available when function is called. Your
errors are jquery.js functions so possiblities are:
- jquery.js is being loaded into page after functions are called-
fix- move jquery.js above call to functions
- jquery.js not being loaded in page either no script tag for the
file or path incorrect
if script tag is in right place on page ( above
jQuery(document).ready..) check link to file opens in browser, will
confirm path

Hello,
I am hosting a local community association's webpage. A key part of
the site is their event calendar plugin, which is unfortunately now
pretty broken due to a necessary WordPress upgrade. (I apologize for
the verbosity).
I am not a j-coder, but muddled around with the script enough and used
some existing mailinglist and the jquery manual to clean up most of
it, but now I am stuck.
I don't know why the orignator of the code felt it necessary to state
jQuery before ever function and argument instead of the seemingly more
popular/correct "$" but here is the snippet that's causing firebug to
bork on:
<snip>
225 jQuery.noConflict();
226 function alertmsgbox(msg) {
227 jQuery("#alertmsg p").text(msg);
228 jQuery("#alertmsg").show();
229 jQuery("#alertmsg").animate({ top: "300px" }, 0 ).fadeOut
(100).fadeIn(100).fadeOut(100).fadeIn(100).fadeOut(100).fadeIn
(100).fadeOut(100).fadeIn(100);
230 }
231 jQuery(document).ready(function() {
232 jQuery("#close_message_alert").click(function() {
233 jQuery("#alertmsg").fadeOut("slow");
234 jQuery("#alertmsg").hide();
235 });
236 jQuery('h2').hide();
237 })(jQuery);
</snip>
Originally line 236 was:
jQuery("a...@href='']").hide();
Reading the manual indicated "@" was deprecated and "#addEventform'"
is defined earlier in the code as:
function addEventForm() {
?>
<a name="addEventform"></a><h2><?php _e('Add Event','events-
calendar'); ?></h2>
I think i know what the original author's intent was, but I just cant
shake Firebug's console error of:
jQuery(document).ready(function () {jQuery
("#close_message_alert").click(function () {jQuery("#alertmsg").fadeOut
("slow");jQuery("#alertmsg").hide();});jQuery("h2").hide();}) is not a
function
Thanks for any tips that point me in the right direction.
