Pardon me for being a little pedantic: jQuery.noConflict does not allow you
to use the variable jQuery. The jQuery variable is there either way. If not,
you couldn't call jQuery.noConflict() ;)
jQuery.noConflict allows you to use the $ alias for something other than
jQuery, by returning it to its previously defined value.
Another option should be mentioned (for completeness). If you have a bunch
of javascript/jQuery code that's already written to use the $, and you don't
want to search and replace the $ with jQuery, you can use the following
pattern to have the $ alias be jQuery inside a block with all your jQuery
code, after calling jQuery.noConflict:
(function($) {
// Inside this block, $ is the jQuery object
// not the other $
})(jQuery);
