Prototype/jQuery plugin issue

Deleted User 234324 · 2 Oct 2009 at 11:30

Hiya,

I currently work on a site which uses the prototype framework but require a plugin that can be used to allow only part of an unordered list to be visible until a user clicks to view more.

I've been using Collapzor jQuery plugin but turns out that has been causing major issues between the 2 frameworks.

Anyone know of a similar plugin to Collapzor for the Prototype framework ?

Have you tried the JQuery noconflict plugin, that sometimes works.

I've not used prototype myself but if it's anything like jquery, wouldn't it be quite easy to write your own?

Worked a treat! my Java knowledge is very limited so had no idea that jQuery had a noconflict mode.

If you are using prototype, use prototype. Don't jQuery to your site just to use one plugin.

I recently inherited a project at work that used mootools, jquery and prototype in various places. Such fun to pick that mess apart.
