django-cms and jQuery -

i've got django site running quite happily django-cms want include of own fancy javascript using jquery. i'm rather new django, problems might stem this.

django-cms uses jquery itself, , if add jquery header - things break rathter unsurprisingly. how add own jquery without affecting django-cms?

at moment javascript files stored in media root i've defined in projects settings.py and, mentioned, reference them in header.

as read this, seems silly question, i'm still perplexed.

edit::some code

i have media root defined:

media_root = os.path.join(project_path, 'media') 

and in base template header includes

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

javascript in application.js works, when django-cms stuff breaks. example, trying add plugin placeholder results in:

uncaught typeerror: property 'type' of object function ( selector, context ) {         // jquery object init constructor 'enhanced'         return new jquery.fn.init( selector, context );     } not function 

i assumed because 2 jquerys conflicting each other

::another edit:: should add i'm using django host static files because still in development...

a simple solution: keep jquery library in header , place other js @ boottom of page, right before </body>. in case in admin mode, jquery lib overrided admin's copy, , of code added it.
