JQUERY Conflicts when putting wp_head() inside my header.

    Hi, I’m having problems in my wordpress site and I realized that whenever I remove the wp_head() function inside <head> tag, it works fine. Most of the problem is jquery related including the Coda Slider by Kevin Batdorf, PreLoadMe, WP Form-Maker and the WP Countdown plugin.

    What I did was copy the <head> tag on firebug, inserted the head tag manually (from firebug) on my index.php and remove the inserted functions and css files to distinguish what file is concerning the problem.

    I then figured out that WP Countdown is inserting another jquery library (I already have one installed) and the Form Maker is inserting mootools.js. When I try to remove this jquery files, my whole site work. But you would expect that the WP Form-Maker won’t work now.

    The question is, how will I prevent this conflicts to happen? How will I make sure that the plugins that I add onto my wordpress site won’t insert another Jquery Library so that it will not affect other script?

    Of course I can just leave the manual inserting of the jquery files without bothering to put the wp_head() but what if I included another plugin and it needs to insert a function inside wp_head.

    What will be the solution?
