Does anyone have any experience using mootools alongside three.js? Right now it seems to conflict as mootools seems to remove animation, mouse functionality and more from my three.js project.
I used jQuery initially without any problems, but have since converted it to plain javascript. However now I have to make sure that the code is Mootools compatible. The only thing I do is to include the mootool (1.4.5) library, but that is enough to create some conflict.
So does anyone have any experience with mootools and three.js not playing well together?
Thanks in advance.

we can develop a plugin as a form element with qtbrowserplugin.

Can we do the same thing with firebreath? Are there any example available?
Thanks.
Interesting. I have never heard of this before. FireBreath does not have any such feature at present, but if you can figure out what qtbrowserplugin is actually doing behind the scenes it should be fairly trivial to add support to firebreath for the same thing.
We have to build an app which should run on iOS and android. For expenses reason we decided to to it with html5 and phonegap.
Now we have to decide which mobile framework we wann use for it. I know there are already a lot of this issues and I also already did a lot of research. But I'm still not sure which one we should pick.
I've heard a lot down side points from Jquery mobile, but on the other hands it seems there is nothing really better, beside senche touch, out there.
What are your experience, what whould you suggest?
I'm looking forward hearing your opinion
(let me now if you need further information for evaluating)
Thanks
Building PhoneGap with Bootstrap and AngularJS is a breeze.
AngularJS provide a really nice separation between Route, Model, View, and Controller. Learn Angular directives and stop writing spaghetti js dom interaction code.
Bootstrap, though not as nice as jQM for mobile features (maybe until v3), still provide a nice starter CSS such as (navbar, fixed top, bottom, etc...) And if you know your css, then I think Bootstrap is more flexible than jQM. Combine with some nodejs build script to compile your less file to css and you are all set. Glyphicons is also a good starter set of asset/images.
I am sure you would have done a lot of research on this but from my experience I would suggest you to take a look at Sencha Touch + Phonegap combination.
The reason why I opted for Sencha Touch over Jquery Mobile is that the JM is quite sluggish when it comes to page transition and animation. Whereas, Sencha Touch provides you all-in-one place regarding building a rich mobile app with HTML5, CSS and Javascript. The only thing about ST is that you might require to learn some Ext JS which is used by Sencha Touch to create components. They do have a lot of documentations which you can refer to.
You can refer these links to kickstart on Sencha:

All the best! :)
We have just started working with PhoneGap in my studio and we are using Backbone.js + Handlebars.js and Bootstrap or Ratchet depending on the case. It seems to work very well.
If you want some more resources on that I will suggest you start with

Really good resources.
I am pretty new to HTML5. Coming from Flash background, I can call the swipe events easily from Actionscript API. But for HTML5, I believe I have to code this myself by listening to touchstart, touchmove, and touchend. Is there a simpler way to do this? And also I am looking for a website that contains complete HTML5 references
Your best bet for handling touch events is to look at some JavaScript libraries that can handle them: JQuery Mobile, Sencha Touch and jQT (formerly jQTouch) are the big ones.
If you're not already using JQuery, I would highly recommend it.
As far as HTML references, the (highly verbose and technical) specification document might be too much, so I would suggest starting with w3schools. (A tip: Keep in mind that HTML5 is still a work in progress and browser/client support varies.)
If you need help figuring out how to manipulate the DOM (i.e. how to use JavaScript to make things happen), the JQuery documentation is also be a good reference point.
I have a site that I am using prototype and scriptaculous on. One one page of my site, I would like to use Digitarald's FancyUploader (I have not found anything else that is as elegant, and offers multiple file selection). Is it possible to use the two on the same page? If so, how would I do it?
There is no way to run a Mootools script with prototype.
While Mootools provide a dollar-safe mode, that mode only provided compatibility with frameworks that provides a $() function.
The reason why Mootools and prototype are incompatible is that they both extend native JavaScript natives with their own methods. Unfortunately, there is no way of overriding this behavior.
SWFUpload is an alternative solution which is compatible with pretty much all JavaScript frameworks. It is pretty much functionally equivalent to FancyUpload. You might want to consider it as an alternative solution. If not, you'll have to make a choice between Mootools and prototype.
Using both libraries will make my life easier. But there seem to be some sort of a problem. Anyone knows the solution to this? Thank you.
I agree with Dimitar, use one framework where you can, it will make life much easier. Mootools has a raft of goodies that you can plug in and get going with. I suggest you have a look at the clientcide site http://www.clientcide.com/ and their download page where you will find Tips.Pointy which will do just what you want.
http://www.clientcide.com/js
So you know Mootools has done alot of work to allow it to run side by side with other frameworks but any plugins written for them have to use these new features for it to all play nice. All of clientcide's code has been re-written to allow it to use these new "play nice" features in Moo.
Enjoy
you can make a non-prototypial library co-exist with mootools or prototype (for example, jquery) but you can't easily get libraries that change / extend the native prototypes to co-exist with each other.
chances are you can get things going if you namespace but any code that you have that depends on the first framework that you load may stop working as expected (prototypes again)
as far as i remember, there were some efforts in the past to get this going - there was a project called SmoothGallery or something.
my advice is - find a tooltip plugin for mootools and drop prototip. forcing two frameworks on your users is a bad practice anyway
good luck :)
