I am working on a server-side framework.

Here and there I have been adding hand-crafted javascript to do things on the client side. However this is becoming more and more painful and from what I heard I think jQuery can be of help.

The issue is that as this is essentially server side stuff, I don’t want to obligate my users (assuming there will be any 🙂 to use jQuery.

So the question is, how good is jQuery at coexisting with other popular javascript libraries? Will it hijack global names and events for its own purposes or is it a relatively respectful & coexisting dude.

    jquery has a noconflict option which helps with using it with other libraries.

    You can also compare how much it pollutes the global namespace against other libraries here

    I’m also not sure what you’re actually asking, as you discuss adding javascript client side enhancements but then go on to say that it will mostly be ‘server side stuff’. Which is it? Mostly client or mostly server?
