Mootools Element.fx conflict with jquery 1.5 - mootools

I'm trying to use the element.fx effect from mootools as shown here but it seems like its conflicting with jquery 1.5.
when I remove it starts working again. Any ideas on a work around?

Try using document.id('my_dom_element') instead of $('my_dom_element') when you are trying to use MooTools functions. You can also use jQuery's noConflicts() method.

Are the jQuery method .animate and .delay not allowed in Google Apps Scripts?

When using jQuery within the HtmlService in a Google Apps Script, are the .animate and .delay methods not supported? I can get .show() and .hide() to work, but I can't get any animations to work.
For example, in a sidebar, I would like to temporarily display a notice using:
$('#notice').show().delay(5000).hide();
The delay appears to be ignored. I've tested the following, and it works fine, so it seems that the .delay method is the only thing not working in this case. I've also tried using .animate, but it does not seem to work, either.
$('#notice').show();
Thanks.
The jQuery method .delay() won't work in-between .show() and .hide() as it can only be used in conjunction with animations. You will need to use
setTimout(function(){
$('#notice').hide();
}, 5000);
Those are not supported. Its documented in the limitations section of htmlService.

ChartboostX not loading more apps

I am using this wrapper someone recommended for my iOS cocos2dx game link. It works when I call the showInterstitial() method, but when I try to use the showMoreApps the dialog appears for a split second and then disappears.
In my AppDelegate::applicationDidFinishLaunching() I do this
ChartboostX::sharedChartboostX()->setAppId("REDACTED");
ChartboostX::sharedChartboostX()->setAppSignature("REDACTED");
ChartboostX::sharedChartboostX()->startSession();
ChartboostX::sharedChartboostX()->cacheMoreApps();
And then when I want to call the showMoreApps I do this
ChartboostX::sharedChartboostX()->showMoreApps();
Have a look at my wrapper for Chartboost. It has been updated to use the latest version of the Chartboost SDK and works perfectly in my cocos2D-x game. I have not finished the android documentation yet but you can probably work it out yourself if you need to. The documentation for iOS is almost finished and quite easy to follow.(FYI the class ADELLE is the chartboost delegate and is an objective C++ class so you can use C++ in it as you normally would mixed in with the objective C. This is the same for AdWrapper.mm)
Check it out and see if it works for you.

How to dyamically adding Elements to Mootools Form.Validator?

Currently I am using Form.Validator from Mootools 1.2.5 and Mootools-More 1.2.5, but i am having a hard time validating an Element's input when dynamically injected into the DOM after ondomready. I was wonder if there's a way to attach Form.Validator's functionalities to the newly inject Elements?
UPDATE:
Using what #Dimitar suggested i was able to fix the issue. I use the build in function getFields to repopulate/attach events to the dynamic Elements. formValidatorObj.watchFields(formValidatorObj.getFields()); Hope this will help some Mootooler's in the future!
i am not a big -more users but looking at the source code on github, this seems like a good guess:
https://github.com/mootools/mootools-more/blob/master/Source/Forms/Form.Validator.js#L161
i guess you can pass any element - dynamically created or otherwise.
formValidatorObj.watchFields([someElsCollection]); // or from form.getElements or whatever.
// dynamically add a new field...
formValidatorObj.watchFields([new Element("input.required[value=John]").inject(formValidatorObj.element, "top")]);

How to create a floating div with mootools?

I'm using an application (IIPImage) which display an High Resolution Image using a script created with mootools api. I want to insert a floating window in this page. Initially I think to use jquery, BUT I discover that jquery can't coexist with this library, so I need to use mootools to create this floating div. How I can do this? Someone can help me please?
Thanks
mootools and jquery can co-exist just fine, given some work - jquery has a .noConflict() mode and mootools won't take over $ (since 1.2.2) if it has already been defined and will revert to using document.id instead. however, IIPImage seems to have been written for 1.2.0 which is old and buggy and does not care about overwriting $ - upgrade mootools to 1.2.5 and replace mentions of $( with document.id( in the script or add a closure instead like (function($) { ... code from the zoomer ... })(document.id);
you may need to find any global vars refrences and change them as declared from var foo = to window.foo = but all in all, it should not really be a drama.
as for the other solution, you can figure it out here http://davidwalsh.name/persistent-header-opacity
this is a small bit of code that enables position: fixed for browsers that don't support it (IE before 8 i think)
have fun.

jQuery $(document).ready(); declaring all the functions in it

Explanation:
i have few objects and im declaring them inside $(document).ready(). WHY? because in thous objects i have many jquery methods $(..), obviously they can work outside too, but when i include mootool, then it stop working. i tried noConflict and some other things, nothing works, only if i change the $() to jQuery() or to $j().. and i dont want to change for my 20 files and more then 2000 lines for each file. anyway declaring my objects inside $(document).ready(). made them work just fine.
Now My Question is:
if i declare all these objects inside the $(document).ready() method, would it make my site slow? or would it make things slow from client side? thats the only concern in my mind.
I don't see how doing that would make your site slow. By declaring them within the $().ready you're simply restricting the scope of your declarations to that particular $().ready function, thus they won't be available from within the scopes of other ready functions on the same page - which should not really be a bother if your application is well-designed and you've stuck to one per page.
Oh, and your declarations certainly won't have been been parsed until the DOM is fully loaded, (as you know, $().ready only executes once the DOM has loaded), but that too should not be a problem as you're only utilizing them from within a ready function (at least I hope).
Do you really need two libraries? If it's just one or two little tidbits of functionality you are using from one of those libraries chances are you can mimic that behaviour using the one you're making the greatest use of. If you can possibly/feasibly do that it will make your life so much simpler.
Doing everything in jQuery.ready will not slow down your site.
As an alternative solution, you could replace $ with jQuery in all of your jQuery code, or you could wrap it in a function like this:
(function($) {
$('whatever').something();
})(jQuery);
This code makes a function that takes a paremeter called $, and calls that function with the jQuery object. The $ parameter will hide mootools' global $ object within the scope of the function, allowing you to write normal jQuery code inside the function.
Just declare
jQuery.noConflict before the document.ready request, then alias the jQuery method to $ within in the document.ready...
jQuery.noConflict();
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
});
