Bug: BookReader errors out in IE #23

Closed benwbrum closed 13 years ago

benwbrum commented 13 years ago

Apparently a JavaScript library conflict between JQuery (which Bookreader depends on) and Prototype (which much of FromThePage depends on) is throwing an error which most browsers merely ignore, but which IE interprets as "Stop Everything!".

I need to either figure out how to get the libraries to interoperate (see http://docs.jquery.com/Using_jQuery_with_Other_Libraries ) or refactor the Bookreader code to not use "$" and call JQuery.noconflict().

I've refactored the Bookreader code to use jQuery() instead of $().
