I was using JQuery for a few things (mostly updating styles), and  
adding a component using the Wonder Ajax framework broke JQuery (it  
and Prototype fight over $()). It was easy enough for me to switch my  
JQuery stuff over to Prototype as I was just doing simple stuff. In  
theory, JQuery and Prototype are supposed to co-exist, but that  
wasn't true for my particular case.
