Datatables seems to conflict with other jQuery in website
Datatables seems to conflict with other jQuery in website

More specifically, datatables won't work without the jquery.js file, which on inspection is version 1.1, and the other jQuery functions I have in my website are runing on jquery 1.6.4. I can have either Data Tables or my other jQuery functions run, but not both at a time. How can I resolve this? The customer wants me to have both.
Can Data Tables run on jQuery 1.6.4?

It can't be something that obscure and simple! A full day of banging my head against the all, and it all comes down to wrapping one of the functions with another wrapper I never needed to use before.
jQuery(function ($) { $(document).ready(function () { $('#NavigationMenu').smartmenus(); }); });and in my client page:
$(document).ready(function () { $('#gvViewItems').DataTable(); });The manual states that jQuery 1.7 or newer is required.
It might work, but it isn't something I've tested.

I figured out that my question was based on a false premise. It was a jquery language issue with the resolution described above. That's why my two functions seemed to be in conflict.
