Play nice... no. Get along... yes.
<!-- THESE MUST GO FIRST AND IN THIS ORDER -->
<script src="javascript/prototype.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="javascript/scriptaculous.js" type="text/javascript"></

<script src="javascript/jquery.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

<!-- END ORDER SPECIFIC LIBRARY -->
What I'm doing, and what seems to work so far, load prototype, then
third party libraries that are known to build off prototype directly,
then jQuery (which steals the $() function), load libraries that
require jQuery (like metadata), and then at the very last minute
unhook jQuery from the $() with .noConflict.
At that point I use $() for prototype and $jquery() for jQuery. It
isn't pretty, but the other library calls seem to handle things
famously.
