I'm having a problem using the blockUI library on Active Forum pages. The code I am attempting to run works fin on other pages.

The error I get on AF pages is:  $.blockUI is not a function

Most of the goggle results seem to indicate that the blockUI library is not loading OR it's in conflict with another library. I have verified that the library is included in the page, but the functions are just not accessible.

Any ideas how I could fix this?

Active Forums doesn't use jQuery so I'm not sure why it would be the source of the conflict.

jQuery, prototype, MooTools and other javascript libraries sometimes have conflicts with each other.

I was just asking for some advice on debugging the issue.

Right, but Active Forums doesn't use any javascript libraries other than our own which is properly encapsulated in our own namespace. Unless another namespace is amaf.UI, amaf.Utils, etc I'm not sure how would conflict.

A common problem I have seen related to many javascript libraries is how and when they are loaded. If something affects the dom (AJAX) or another error does occur then it could prevent the library from loading properly or functioning as it should.

Apologies, I'm not saying there is a conflict with AF or looking to blame anyone. However, not knowing the details of the AF javascript implementation is what led me here to inquire. Thanks for the information.

No need to apologize. I didn't think you were trying to blame us, but I wanted to make sure you knew we weren't using any libraries. If we were talking about Active Social then that would be a different story.
