conflict in Livelink with a customview that load Jquery (javascript)

Hi, I have included a zip file to describe my problem. I tryed to reduce this to the bare minimum. There is 2 file: A javascript file that include the latest version of JQuery (a popular javascript Library) that I want to use in a customview. This file should be added to Livelink (note the nodeid). A html file called customview.htm that should be used to create a customview. In it there is a script that call the first javascript file. (You have to change the variable "fiJavascripts" with the nodeid of the first Javascript file).So, this customview will display a small yellow arrow at the right of the screen. When this arrow is clicked, a small message says "loaded" which mean the script is working. The problem is that when i go to another folder a Javascript error is thrown. So i think it is a conflict with Jquery. I tryed the same thing with a Prototype.js (another popular Javascript library) and did not get this error. Do you know what could be the problem ?

Hi Jean-PhilippeWhich version of LL ? Do you have Communities ? Did you try with JQuery 1.4 ?If another javascript library like prototype is loaded, you can try to follow instruction athttp://docs.jquery.com/Using_jQuery_with_Other_LibrariesPierre

I did not retry it with the latest jquery. But I have a couple customview that use jquery 1.3.2 and do not have this problem anymore. You could try to load it inline in the first page that load the other script. ex:if (typeof jQuery == 'undefined') { // copy paste the whole jquery code inline here}And put this test in the 2nd file also to not load it twice. Also, If you are on Livelink 9.7.1, please read this :https://knowledge.opentext.com/knowledge/llisapi.dll?func=ll&objId=16342817&objAction=ArticleView&viewType=1

I tried with jquery 1.4, I do not have the error when I leave the page.BUT, the code of the custom view I grabbed on this site (http://www.innovate-online.com/knowzone/livelink.exe/open/12132830) does not work anymore (see customview in attachment).Any idea of an update internally at Open Text?Thanks,
