If you have ever had javascript conflicts due to several different javascript libraries being used you will understand the need for using this method. Rather than using the documented $(document).ready method of starting any javascript functionality on document load. I recommend that you give the alternative shown below. This is due to the common conflict between Javascript libraries using the $ symbol. By writing your document ready in this way, any $ symbols within this declaration will be ignored by all other javascript libraries. Meaning you will no longer need to use the no conflict method of solving the same problem</p> Thu, 11 Nov 2010 00:01:58 UTC https://snipplr.com/view/43906/rather-than-using-documentready--alternative-no-conflict
