I'm having a problem doing something very basic in jQuery. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong exactly?
If I run the code below, the function $.get seems to be missing (getJSON and others missing too). But $ itself and other functions do exist, so I know JQuery is loading.
google.load("jquery", "1.3.2");
function _validate(form, rules_file) {
$.get('/validation_rules.json',function(data) {
alert("hello")
})
}
Any ideas would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Rob
Edit: here is some additional info:
<script src="http://www.google.com/jsapi"></script>
<script>
google.load("prototype", "1.6");
google.load("scriptaculous", "1.8");
google.load("jquery", "1.3.2");
</script>
<script>
jQuery.noConflict(); // prevent conflicts with prototype
</script>
<script src="/livepipe/src/livepipe.js"
type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="/livepipe/src/window.js"
type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="/livepipe/src/tabs.js"
type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="/jquery.maskedinput-1.2.2.js"
type="text/javascript"></script>
This will happen, too, if you use the SLIM version of jQuery.
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.1.1.slim.min.js"></script>
gave me
>jQuery.get
:undefined
>jQuery.get()
:VM7130:1 Uncaught TypeError: jQuery.get is not a function
at <anonymous>:1:8
while loading the same library without the slim option
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.1.1.min.js"></script>
works well
jQuery.get()
:Object {readyState: 1}
The $ variable you have is from Prototype-js, because you are using the jQuery.noConflict method.
That method will restore the $ variable back to whichever library first implemented it.
You should use the jQuery methods on the jQuery global object directly, eg.:
jQuery.get(/* .. */);
jQuery.getJSON(/* .. */);
// etc...
Or you can define another shorter variable as alias if you want:
var $j = jQuery.noConflict();
Generally speaking, when you are having the $.get is not a function error be sure you are not using the slim version of jQuery coming from Bootstrap original imports.
You can also wrap your jQuery functions in a closure and pass in jQuery as the "$" sign, eg.:
(function($) {
function _validate(form, rules_file) {
$.get('/validation_rules.json',function(data) {
alert("hello")
})
}
})(jQuery)
If you specify jQuery.noConflict(), then $ is no longer available from jQuery. use jQuery.get instead.
For me I wasn't including JQuery script. This is the fix:
<head>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.5.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
</head>

I'm a new JQuery programmer, here is my head code:
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
function myfunction(){
$("button").click(function(){
$("p").hide();
};
});
$(document).ready(myfunction);
</script>
this script works perfectly, but when i add these other three scripts in the page:
<script type="text/javascript" src="/file/js/prototype.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/file/js/scriptaculous.js?load=effects,builder"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/file/lightbox/js/lightbox.js"></script>
che console error gave me:
Uncaught TypeError: undefined is not a function
on '$(document).ready(myfunction);' line.
what is the error? Is a conflict problem?
jQuery defines a function called $ that you are trying to use.
prototype.js also defines a function called $ and overwrites the one from jQuery.
Use jQuery to refer to the jQuery function instead of $.
Prototype.js also uses the global $ variable. You need to make sure they don't conflict with each other by using the jQuery variable instead:
// wrap it up
(function($) {
function myfunction() {
$("button").click(function(){
$("p").hide();
});
};
$(document).ready(myfunction);
})(jQuery);
You can also just replace all jQuery $ uses with jQuery, but the method above is generally simpler to implement and maintain.
I have the following references to the javascripts libraries.
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.8.2.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="modernizr-1.5.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="JavaScript-1.js"></script>
<script>jQuery.noConflict();</script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#tabs-2').html("<p>jQuery add </p>");
});
</script>
In the html there is a div with id tabs-2. I am not able to control the html elements using JQuery scripts. The above simple in-line script is also not working.
I have also added a custom script file which has the jQuery function as stated in this example.
Any inputs on how to add use custom JQuery libraries?
After you call
jQuery.noConflict();
you can no longer use $. You have to use jQuery, or, assign the return value from the noConflict() call to a variable and use that:
var $j = jQuery.noConflict();
$j(document).ready(function($) {
// here you can use $ again
});
To keep your custom scripts compatible whether jQuery is in no-conflict mode or not, you could wrap it with an IIFE:
(function($) {
// your code that uses '$'
})(jQuery);
See: jQuery.noConflict() documentation
The following line
<script>jQuery.noConflict();</script>
means that jQUery runs in no conflict mode. This means that $ is not aliased to the jQuery object and you have to use jQueryisntead of $
You can use the noConflict() function
<script src="other_lib.js"></script>
<script src="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>
JQuery.noConflict()
I can't get the noConflict() method to work properly. I've been searching online for hours and can't seem to get a solid answer. Here's what I have in my header...
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/mootools.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/slimbox.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.js"></script><!-- jQuery script -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/page_scroll.js"></script><!-- JavaScript -->
<script src="js/jquery.easing.1.3.js" type="text/javascript"></script><!-- jQuery easing plug-in -->
<script type="text/javascript">
var $j = jQuery.noConflict();
// Use jQuery via $j(...)
$j(document).ready(function(){
$j("div").hide();
});
// Use Mootools with $(...), etc.
$('someid').hide();
</script>
There's no other jQuery or JavaScript within my HTML (just what I have externally), so "placing anything that uses the $ variable in the noConlict method" is not an option.
Essentially what I'm trying to do is have slimbox and easing page scroll (for my navigation) to work together. The problem is of course one works when the other is removed and vice versa. Also, when I use the noConflict() method I get slimbox to work and not pagescroll, but when I remove the noConflict() method I get pagescroll to work and not slimbox. So apperently noConflict is doing something, I just don't know what that is or how to go about it.
If anyone can help me out, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.
when using other js libs that leverage the $ alias,
I have found reliable results by using
$.noConflict();
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
// your jQuery code here i.e.
// jQuery('some-selector-expression').somefunction();
});
// prototype or mootools code that uses the $ alias works fine here
So are you saying it does not work when you declare $j? You can define your own alternate names (e.g. jq, $J, awesomeQuery - anything you want). Try calling it something w/o the $
Wrap it in an anonymous function:
(function($){
$(document).ready(function() {
// function here...
});
})(jQuery);
Seeing the exact code might help.
I am using both javascript and jquery code on the same html page. For some reason, the jQuery library is stopping my native javascript code from working properly.
I found this page: jQuery No Conflict that says you can use a jquery.noConflict to release $ back to javascript. However, I'm not sure how to do this?
Specifically, I'm not sure how to implement this correctly? Where does the the Jquery code go, where does the JS code go?
My code is below:
<script type="text/javascript">
$.noConflict();
// Code that uses other library's $ can follow here.
</script>
jQuery.noConflict will reset the $ variable so it's no longer an alias of jQuery. Aside from just calling it once, there's not much else you really need to do. Though, you can create your own alias with the return value, if you'd like:
var jq = jQuery.noConflict();
And, generally, you want to do this right after including jQuery and any plugins:
<script type="text/javascript" src="/path/to/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/path/to/jquery-plugin.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery.noConflict();
// Code that uses other library's $ can follow here.
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/path/to/prototype.js"></script>
You can also go one step further and free up jQuery with noConflict(true). Though, if you take this route, you'll definitely want an alias as neither $ nor jQuery will probably be what you want:
var jq = jQuery.noConflict(true);
I think this last option is mostly used for mixing versions of jQuery, particularly for out-dated plugins when you want to update jQuery itself:
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.4.4.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-older-plugin.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var jq144 = jQuery.noConflict(true);
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.6.4.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-newer-plugin.js"></script>
By default, jquery uses the variable jQuery and the $ is used for your convenience. If you want to avoid conflicts, a good way is to encapsulate jQuery like so:
(function($){
$(function(){
alert('$ is safe!');
});
})(jQuery)
If I'm not mistaken:
var jq = $.noConflict();
then you can call jquery function with jq.(whatever).
jq('#selector');
It's typically used if you are using another library that uses $.
In order to still use the $ symbol for jQuery, I typically use:
jQuery.noConflict()(function($){
// jQuery code here
});
It allows for you to give the jQuery variable a different name, and still use it:
<script type="text/javascript">
$jq = $.noConflict();
// Code that uses other library's $ can follow here.
//use $jq for all calls to jQuery:
$jq.ajax(...)
$jq('selector')
</script>
If you look at the examples on the api page there is this:
Example: Creates a different alias instead of jQuery to use in the rest of the script.
var j = jQuery.noConflict();
// Do something with jQuery
j("div p").hide();
// Do something with another library's $()
$("content").style.display = 'none';
Put the var j = jQuery.noConflict() after you bring in jquery and then bring in the conflicting scripts. You can then use the j in place of $ for all your jquery needs and use the $ for the other script.
In addition to that, passing true to $.noConflict(true); will also restore previous (if any) global variable jQuery, so that plugins can be initialized with correct jQuery version when multiple versions are being used.
You simply assign a custom variable for JQuery to use instead of its default $. JQuery then wraps itself in a new function scope so $ no longer has a namespace conflict.
<script type="text/javascript">
$jQuery = $.noConflict();
// Other library code here which uses '$'
$jQuery(function(){ /* dom ready */ }
</script>
The noConflict() method releases the $ shortcut identifier, so that other scripts can use it for next time.
Default jquery $ as:
// Actin with $
$(function(){
$(".add").hide();
$(".add2").show();
});
Or as custom:
var j = jQuery.noConflict();
// Action with j
j(function(){
j(".edit").hide();
j(".add2").show();
});
<script src="JavascriptLibrary/jquery-1.4.2.js"></script>
<script>
var $i = jQuery.noConflict();
// alert($i.fn.jquery);
</script>
<script src="JavascriptLibrary/jquery-1.8.3.js"></script>
<script>
var $j = jQuery.noConflict();
//alert($j.fn.jquery);
</script>
<script src="JavascriptLibrary/jquery.colorbox.js"></script>
<script src="Js/jquery-1.12.3.js"></script>
<script>
var $NJS = jQuery.noConflict();
</script>
You can do it like this:
<script>
$i.alert('hi i am jquery-1.4.2.js alert function');
$j.alert('hi i am jquery-1.8.3.js alert function');
</script>
Today i have this issue because i have implemented "bootstrap menu" that uses a jQuery version along with "fancybox image gallery". Of course one plugin works and the other not due to jQuery conflict but i have overcome it as follow:
First i have added the "bootstrap menu" Js in the script footer as the menu is presented allover the website pages:
<!-- Top Menu Javascript -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var jq171 = jQuery.noConflict(true);
</script>
And in the "fancybox" image gallery page as follow:
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>window.jQuery || document.write('<script src="fancybox/js/libs/jquery-1.7.1.min.js"><\/script>')</script>
And the good thing is both working like a charm :)
Give it a try :)
I fixed that error by adding this conflict code
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery.noConflict();
</script>
after my jQuery and js files and get the file was the error (found by the console of browser) and replace all the '$' by jQuery following this on all error js files in my Magento website. It's working for me good.
Find more details on my blog here
/* The noConflict() method releases the hold on the $ shortcut identifier, so that other scripts can use it. */
var jq = $.noConflict();
(function($){
$('document').ready(function(){
$('button').click(function(){
alert($('.para').text());
})
})
})(jq);

Several of my pages use both JQuery and Protoype. Since I upgraded to version 1.3 of JQuery this appears to be causing problems, because both libraries define a function named '$'.
JQuery provides a function noConflict() which relinquishes control of $ to other libraries that may be using it. So it seems like I need to go through all my pages that look like this:
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/obp/js/prototype.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/obp/js/jquery.js"></script>
</head>
and change them to look like this:
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/obp/js/prototype.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/obp/js/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery.noConflict();
var $j = jQuery;
</script>
</head>
I should then be able to use '$' for Prototype and '$j' (or 'jQuery') for JQuery. I'm not entirely happy about duplicating these 2 lines of code in every relevant page, and expect that at some point somebody is likely to forget to add them to a new page. I'd prefer to be able to do the following
Create a file jquery-noconflict.js which "includes" jquery.js and the 2 lines of code shown above
Import jquery-noconflict.js (instead of jquery.js) in all my JSP/HTML pages
However, I'm not sure if it's possible to include one JS file in another, in the manner I've described? Of course an alternate solution is simply to add the 2 lines of code above to jquery.js directly, but if I do that I'll need to remember to do it every time I upgrade JQuery.
Currently you can do something like this:
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/obp/js/prototype.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/obp/js/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var $j = jQuery.noConflict();
</script>
</head>
Then, use jQuery as $j() and Prototype's $().
It would seem that the most simple answer would be to bite the bullet, and include your noConflict lines. Of course if your pages aren't using a shared header, that solution might not be the best.
This solution worked fine:
jQuery.noConflict();
var $j = jQuery;
Now use $j in place of $ for your jQuery code, like:
$j(document).ready(function() {
$j('#div_id').innerfade({
// some stuff
});
});
I went through this for a while. It is very annoying and in the end I decided to weed out all of my old Prototype stuff and replace it with jQuery. I do like the way Prototype handles some Ajax tasks but it wasn't worth the trade off of maintaining all of the no conflict stuff.
Just as a note to others that stumble upon this. The solutions are described here (mentioning prototype specifically):
http://docs.jquery.com/Using_jQuery_with_Other_Libraries
Could you not just include the jQuery = noConflict() code in the jquery.js source file? Why would it need to be defined that way?
Your jquery-noconflict.js should look like this (be sure that all is in one line):
document.write("<script type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"/obp/js/jquery.js\"></script><script type=\"text/javascript\">jQuery.noConflict();var $j = jQuery;</script>");
... and than your include (as you already pointed out) should look like this:
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/obp/js/prototype.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/obp/js/jquery-noconflict.js"></script>
</head>
This solution solves all your requirements I think.
<script>
document.write(unescape('%3Cscript type="text/javascript" src="/obp/js/jquery.js"%3E%3C/script%3E'));
</script>
<script>
jQuery.noConflict();
var $j = jQuery;
</script>
or
var scripty = document.createElement('script');
scripty.href="/obp/js/jquery.js";
document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(scripty);
jQuery.noConflict();
var $j = jQuery;
EDIT:
I tried out this suggestion but the last 2 lines produce the error
jQuery is not defined
You could call jquery first and then set
var $j = jQuery;
prototype will take control of $ in this case.
Or, you could just refer to jQuery by using the full jQuery function name (jQuery).
Use Prototype below jQuery like this:
<script type="text/javascript" src="news/jquery-1.2.3.pack.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="news/jquery.easynews.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="lb/js/prototype.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="lb/js/scriptaculous.js?load=effects"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="lb/js/lightbox.js"></script>
<link href="lb/css/lightbox.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
in this case the jQuery function will create a problem, so you can use this to solve the problem:
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery.noConflict();
var JQ = jQuery;//rename $ function
</script>
If I were you, I'd drop my no conflict code into a JavaScript include file like you opined about above, and then figure out some process where I'd be setting these things I need to include in all my pages in one central place. If you are working with straight HTML files and you don't have any kind of templating/scripting capability server-side for what gets included in a document, there's always the possibility of doing a Server-Side Include.
Either way, the pain you'll experience updating each of your pages this time will come back again when you need to update your analytics code or the site footer.
You need to load it in your public/javascript/application.js
jQuery.noConflict();
var $j = jQuery;
