[OpenLayers-Users] OpenLayers 2.2 breaks with jQuery

Tue Nov 21 22:27:21 EST 2006

hi, i havent tried this, but i think you shouldnt have to alias jquery as
JQ, just use jQuery (where you'd normally use $), and include it _after_ any
prototype/OL stuff.
the jquery srcipt checks if $ exists, if so, it doesnt create that
namespace.
