I'am dealing here with a web application that defines somewhere in a java script file:
$ = function() { return document.getElementById(arguments[0]); }
Every other script, jsp page and dynamic content loaded from db depends on the semantic of the $ - sign working as 'document.getElementById'. Now i would like to start using jqery. So i think i have 2 options:
- refactor the existing application (all script files, jsp's, dynamic content etc.)
- somehow introduct jquery as something differnt than '$'
- (not really an option) don't start using jquery
Are there any other solutions? What would you do?
