I am using the Superfish menu plugin for jQuery to display a vertical menu on some pages. I am also using the Supersubs.js plugin to make sure each level in the menu system is as wide as the widest LI element.
I have taken the EXAMPLE.HTML file that is included in the download zip file and simply added the prototype.js library to the source.
As to be expected FF, Chrome, Safari all render the menu correctly and use the supersubs plugin to make sure each level of the menu is at least as wide as the widest element.
And then there is IE.....
As soon as you include the Prototype.js library on the page IE ignores the Supersubs plugin.
Here is the example.html source:

I have tried jQuery.noConflict(). I have changed the source in the plugin files to use jQuery instead of $ even though they use the format of (function($) {})(jQuery); and that shouldn't matter.
Can anyone help with this? Bout to pull my hair out.
Thanks in advance!
