Jquery have provide a solution for prototype.js and jquery.js conflicts. There is one caveat: By default, jQuery uses "$" as a shortcut for "jQuery". However, you can override that default by calling jQuery.noConflict() at any point after jQuery and the other library have both loaded. For example:
<script src="prototype.js"><⁄script>
<script src="jquery.js"><⁄script>
<script>
var $j =jQuery.noConflict();
$j(document).ready(function(){
⁄ ⁄ Use jQuery via $j(...)
$j('#button1').click(function(){
var textbox1 = $j('#textbox1').val();
alert(textbox1);
});
⁄ ⁄ Use Prototype with $(...)
$('someid').hide();
}
<⁄script>
