Question

Ok I have a page that uses 3 plugins and custom code.

1. Fullscreenr
2. ScrollTo
3. VideoBox

my custom code is just to change css style of items in menu(I’ll post that code aswell).

My issue is that Fullscreenr and ScrollTo were working fine but when I want to add VideoBox the video popup doesn’t want to work all it does is redirect to the youtube page. When I inspect the page(Chrome) it shows this error:

Uncaught TypeError: Object #<Object> has no method 'setProperty'

on this line:

this.overlay = new Element('div').setProperty('id', 'lbOverlay').injectInside(document.body);

I have tried using $.noConflict(); Now if I removed all the other plugins then it works but that doesn’t work for me cause I need everything to work. Well hope somebody knows what I can do to fix this.

    }

If there is a better script I can use I welcome any and all suggestions aswell.

This will work if multiple libraries use the same $ in a webpage.

(function($){

//Write your jQuery code here as usual using $.

})(jQuery);

We define an anonymous function here, which takes jQuery as its only argument. It gets mapped to $ in the above function and your code will work just as expected. You can very well do things like this.

(function($){
    $(document).ready(function(){
        //Write your jQuery code here as usual using $.
    });
})(jQuery);
