Hi, I am fairly new to jQuery in general, so this question might have been answered somewhere along the way.
I have a problem using the accordion plugin with the interface plugin. They don't interact, just including the interface.js file on the same page makes the accordion stop working. It appears the problem is on line 177 "complete: settings.finished" of the jquery.accordion.js file. When the interface is included the execution jumps to the interface file, when the interface file is not included the execution jumps to jQuery, animate. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Jason On Aug 30, 3:25 pm, Erin Doak <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I agree that people like the animation effects. > I'm all for them.
