jQuery issue - #<an Object> has no method

Question

I've tried a veriety of jQuery plugins recently and I keep getting this error …

… regardless of what plugin I try to use.

I've checked the links to the JS files which are all there and working fine. I'm using Drupal if that makes any difference.

I've run the plugins away from the main site to demonstrate that they are working and that I am doing things right with 100% success.

Any ideas?

Update:

My jQuery file called in the footer:

$(document).ready(function() {          

$('#footer_holder').hide();

// Fancy Box
$("a.fancybox").fancybox({
    'hideOnContentClick': true,
    'titlePosition' : 'over',
    'transitionIn'  :   'elastic',
    'transitionOut' :   'elastic',
    'speedIn'       :   600, 
    'speedOut'      :   200, 
    'overlayShow'   :   false,
});

$("#homepage_slider").easySlider({
    auto: true, 
    continuous: true,
});

});

*note - fancy box works fine (unless the easySlider code is above it). jQuery is sorted out by Drupal. I'm running version 1.4

Answer 1

Ignore me. I'm sorry everyone. I'd mistyped the url of the script. Thanks to Simon Ainley for the prod in the right direction.

Sorry again. Thanks.

Answer 2

I had this problem, or one that looked superficially similar, yesterday. It turned out that I wasn't being careful when mixing jQuery and prototype. I found several solutions at http://docs.jquery.com/Using_jQuery_with_Other_Libraries. I opted for

var $j = jQuery.noConflict();

but there are other reasonable options described there.
