I am implementing a small commenting system that uses Jquery. It took me hours to get it work. I knew the problem was in Jquery vs. Mootols. jQuery.noConflict() did not help. There was fighting image lightbox with commenting system. Finally I tried to remove
JHTML::_("behavior.mootools");
from base file of component at frontend and the problem has gone.
So my question is what is
JHTML::_("behavior.mootools");
for? Just I want to be sure I will not break some functions which I am not aware at the moment.

thanks
Vaclav

Form validator is only in Mootools.

But it will evolve after the V2.0 stabilization. Promise.

I love JQuery too.

Mootools has been choosen because it is Joomla native JS framework.
Coding is now a piece of cake

For starters it's just so easy to design an app in a way that I'm used to i.e. database first then views followed by customization. The fork system is pure brilliance from a developer standpoint as I can override things and still add and update my projects with minimal effort! Truly amazing to be able to build components in Joomla using incremental refinement without having to do everything by hand. Thanks for the great tool! I am so much more productive now than ever and I can't imagine building components any other way!!!!
