533793 - Want jQuery on mozilla.com.

[Jeremy Orem [:oremj]]

Hey, I'd really like to add jQuery to mozilla.com. It would be really useful for omniture/stats tracking stuff. Right now it looks like we are including part of YUI, but not enough of it to be useful anywhere. jQuery is only 19kb and we can put it in noconflict mode if something else is already using $. Thoughts?

^ on mozilla.com already

Will you need it on every page?  Or just here and there?

19K isn't too bad, especially if you load it in the footer of the page, and use $(document).ready()

On the other hand, loading both YUI and Jquery on a page seems silly, but whatever gets the job done I guess.

Ryan, Morgamic, thoughts?
