      Recently I developed a  modules based  mootools javasript framework.  The module works fine in Ie browser, but it makes dnn menu disappear in Firefox browser.  It seems the issue is caused by the conflict  between the $ tag in mootools and the function $()  in core dnn.js.   It is annoying because it is hard to modify neither of them. 
      Has anyone success play mootools javascript in dnn?Is there anyway to solve this?Thanks.

      I just found another thread which talks the same thing but also lack of ideas: Prototype or Mootools with DNN ClientAPI?  . I should follow that thread instread  of open a new thread if I found earlier.

I can't offer a solution, but something to search for and see if there is documentation for mootools regarding this.  JQuery has the exact same problem but the creators of JQuery were nice enough to create something called "CompatibilityMode" which basically remaps the $ back to whatever it was before JQuery was instantiated.  When you do that, you call all the JQuery methods using jQuery.blah instead of $.blah

So the question is if mootools has something like that and, if not, are they going to add it?  You could always download jQuery, look at that particular section of js code and duplicate the functionality in your mootools.js file... assuming its that easy.  On the same token, prhaps the DNNClient library has that functionality as well? (of course, everything is coded to use the $ in the DNNClient library).

Good luck and if you find something, I'm sure a lot of people would love to hear the solution.

       Yes.JQuery has a noConflict() function which works well with dnn js. And also the phototype library. I have used both of them before.
        I just search the web follow your suggestion. The result is not optimism. It seems mootools creator  has no intention to make this change. And as they suggested, mootools should not used with other libraries to avoid conflict.
      Thanks for your suggestion. It seems we have to give up mootools or waiting for either mootools or dnn js  can make a little change.

That is unfortunate.  Maybe somebody will go in and make the changes to the mootools library themselves (which breaks upgradeability, unfortunately) but the changes could be documented and re-added each upgrade of mootools... depends how deeply engrained the $ functionality is within their own library.

That other thread you linked to mentioned that Jon used the extend method on the DNNClientLibrary so it wouldn't compete with prototype... it appears mootools has a $extend function as well... might be worth checking with Jon Henning to see if he can give some suggestions how to accomplish the same with mootools.
