Answer 1

It appears you're having a conflict between jQuery and MooTools. Both JavaScript libraries use the $ symbol, which is why you're getting an error in mootools.js. You can remove the conflict with the following line of jQuery code (though it must be called before your MooTools code):

$.noConflict();
