jQuery with MooTools Equal Heights help
I have jquery to use the Equal Heights plugin. I also have Mootools to run some AJAX php form validation. The problem is that the Equal Heights plugin is not set with the noConflict(); I need some help on how to edit it so that I can run both Mootools and jQuery together. Here is the Equal Heights code:
-
$.fn.equalHeights = function(px) {
$(this).each(function(){
var currentTallest = 0;
$(this).children().each(function(i){
if ($(this).height() > currentTallest) { currentTallest = $(this).height(); }
});
if (!px || !Number.prototype.pxToEm) currentTallest = currentTallest.pxToEm(); //use ems unless px is specified
// for ie6, set height since min-height isn't supported
if ($.browser.msie && $.browser.version == 6.0) { $(this).children().css({'height': currentTallest}); }
$(this).children().css({'min-height': currentTallest});
});
return this;
};
// just in case you need it...
$.fn.equalWidths = function(px) {
$(this).each(function(){
var currentWidest = 0;
$(this).children().each(function(i){
if($(this).width() > currentWidest) { currentWidest = $(this).width(); }
});
if(!px || !Number.prototype.pxToEm) currentWidest = currentWidest.pxToEm(); //use ems unless px is specified
// for ie6, set width since min-width isn't supported
if ($.browser.msie && $.browser.version == 6.0) { $(this).children().css({'width': currentWidest}); }
$(this).children().css({'min-width': currentWidest});
});
return this;
};

*
* Description: Extends the native Number and String objects with pxToEm method. pxToEm converts a pixel value to ems depending on inherited font size.
* Article: http://www.filamentgroup.com/lab/retaining_scalable_interfaces_with_pixel_to_em_conversion/
* Demo: http://www.filamentgroup.com/examples/pxToEm/
*
* Options:
scope: string or jQuery selector for font-size scoping
reverse: Boolean, true reverses the conversion to em-px
* Dependencies: jQuery library
* Usage Example: myPixelValue.pxToEm(); or myPixelValue.pxToEm({'scope':'#navigation', reverse: true});

* Version: 2.0, 08.01.2008
* Changelog:
* 08.02.2007 initial Version 1.0
* 08.01.2008 - fixed font-size calculation for IE

Number.prototype.pxToEm = String.prototype.pxToEm = function(settings){
//set defaults
settings = jQuery.extend({
scope: 'body',
reverse: false
}, settings);
var pxVal = (this == '') ? 0 : parseFloat(this);
var scopeVal;
var getWindowWidth = function(){
var de = document.documentElement;
return self.innerWidth || (de && de.clientWidth) || document.body.clientWidth;
};
/* When a percentage-based font-size is set on the body, IE returns that percent of the window width as the font-size.
For example, if the body font-size is 62.5% and the window width is 1000px, IE will return 625px as the font-size.
When this happens, we calculate the correct body font-size (%) and multiply it by 16 (the standard browser font size)
to get an accurate em value. */
if (settings.scope == 'body' && $.browser.msie && (parseFloat($('body').css('font-size')) / getWindowWidth()).toFixed(1) > 0.0) {
var calcFontSize = function(){
return (parseFloat($('body').css('font-size'))/getWindowWidth()).toFixed(3) * 16;
};
scopeVal = calcFontSize();
}
else { scopeVal = parseFloat(jQuery(settings.scope).css("font-size")); };
var result = (settings.reverse == true) ? (pxVal * scopeVal).toFixed(2) + 'px' : (pxVal / scopeVal).toFixed(2) + 'em';
return result;
};
I can edit it myself I just need to understand on where and how to use the noConflict() and (jQuery) within it.
