Apologies if this issue has been asked before, I am new to the DNN forum.

I'm attempting to build a DNN skin from a HTML/CSS file using the Foundation front-end framework, but I'm getting a compatibility issue with a couple of the scripts. When these scripts are being used, the Control Panel drop down menus do not function.

Has anyone used Foundation with DNN7? I'm trying to figure out whether I can still use this framework, or if I need to re-code. If Foundation is not supported in DNN, I'll try Bootstrap or another program.

You should never include jquery in your skin itself using script tags this has the potential to cause issues with the way dnn itself injects jquery automatically into pages.

In theory - provided that your site has DNN Widgets turned on - the jquery engine will be installed automatically.

However, if you want to be completely sure - you should instead add the dnn:JQUERY control to your skin.

for .ascx skins: 
<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="JQUERY" Src="~/Admin/Skins/jQuery.ascx" %> 

This will let dnn control the injection of the actual jquery library.
