Many JavaScript libraries use $ as a function or variable name, just as jQuery does. In jQuery’s case, $ is just an alias for jQuery, so all functionality is available without using $. If you need to use another JavaScript library alongside jQuery, return control of $ back to the other library with a call to $.noConflict(). Old references of $ are saved during jQuery initialization; noConflict() simply restores them.

<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery.js"></script> <script> $.noConflict(); jQuery( document ).ready(function( $ ) { // Code that uses jQuery's $ can follow here. }); // Code that uses other library's $ can follow here. </script> |
