jQuery Gooey Menu VS Nivo Slider

[tominator360]

Hi! I love this website and have been its resource for quite some time. However, this time I'm having a conflict with two of my js (jQuery Gooey Menu and Nivo Slider). jQuery Gooey Menu overrides Slider and therefore Slider does not work. Please help! I'd debug it myself but I don't know much on js, unfortunately. Please get back to me asap as my website will go live next week!

jQuery.noConflict()

Both odf these scripts use jQuery so you should be fine simply by commenting out the noConflict line in the Gooey Menu like so:

//jQuery.noConflict()

jQuery.extend(jQuery.easing, {easeOutBack:function(x, t, b, c, d, s){ //see http://gsgd.co.uk/sandbox/jquery/easing/
		if (s == undefined) s = 1.70158;
		return c*((t=t/d-1)*t*((s+1)*t + s) + 1) + b;
	}
})


var gooeymenu={
	effectmarkup: '<li cla . . .

One other thing to look out for is to use only one external script tag jQuery for the page, and to use the latest version (1.7.2 last I checked). Place the external script tag for jQuery before the other scripts.

The browser cache may need to be cleared and/or the page refreshed to see changes.

If you want more help, please include a link to the page on your site that contains the problematic code so we can check it out.
