Can someone explain the use of $CQ versus $ in more detail for JQuery? I already know that $CQ refers to CQ's built-in version of JQuery and that $ refera to any secondary jquery package that I may load.
Let me be more precise. My app requires charts and JQPlot seems one of the best plotting solutions available. By default (as you would expect) jqplot.js file refers to JQuery through $. My expectation would be that this would not work in CQ unless I renamed all the $ to $CQ in the jqplot.js file. Oddly this wasn't true. I simply added jqplot.js to my clientlib folder and was able to start rendering graphs.
Very odd! Why is that?
The primary reason for asking is that while the JQuery base package is working, a JQPlot plugin (Cursor) is not...and I can only track it down to some issue between referring to $ versus $CQ.
Thanks!
