Using two plug-ins on the same html page.

Using two plug-ins on the same html page.

How do I combine two plug-ins in the same HTML page? Here is my code:
 
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery/jquery-1.4.2.js"> </script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.innerfade/js/jquery.innerfade.js"> </script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.validate/jquery-1.4.2.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.validate/jquery.validate.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">

$(document).ready(
$('#name').focus();

jQuery.validator.addMethod("phoneUS", function(phone_number, element) {
    phone_number = phone_number.replace(/\s+/g, "");
 return this.optional(element) || phone_number.length > 9 &&
  phone_number.match(/^(1-?)?(\([2-9]\d{2}\)|[2-9]\d{2})-?[2-9]\d{2}-?\d{4}$/);
}, "Please enter a valid phone number.");





$('#quoteForm').validate({
  rules: {
    phone: {
     required: true,
     phoneUS: true
    }
   }// end rules
});// end validate()








function(){
 $('ul#slideshow').innerfade({
  speed: 1000,
  timeout: 5000,
  type: 'sequence',
  containerheight: '265px'
 }); 
};   








}); // end ready()
</script>
 
 
I'm trying to use the fade in effect and the validate plugins. They each work independently, but when I combine them, neither one works. Help is greatly appreciated.
