This helps to make sure that jQuery doesn't conflict with the $ object of other libraries. By using this function, you will only be able to access jQuery using the 'jQuery' variable. For example, where you used to do $("div p"), you now must do jQuery("div p").
Example:
Maps the original object that was referenced by $ back to $.
jQuery.noConflict();
// Do something with jQuery
jQuery("div p").hide();
// Do something with another library's $()
$("content").style.display = 'none';
Example:
Reverts the $ alias and then creates and executes a function to provide the $ as a jQuery alias inside the functions scope. Inside the function the original $ object is not available. This works well for most plugins that don't rely on any other library.
jQuery.noConflict();
(function($) {
$(function() {
// more code using $ as alias to jQuery
});
})(jQuery);
// other code using $ as an alias to the other library
Example:
Creates a different alias instead of jQuery to use in the rest of the script.
var j = jQuery.noConflict();
// Do something with jQuery
j("div p").hide();
// Do something with another library's $()
$("content").style.display = 'none';
