How is jQuery conflicting here? The other libraries are changing builtin objects, interfering with jQuery. To avoid the conflict, jQuery would need to find a property that we can assure won't be added by those libraries.

Is there a good solution ?

We have the same problem using noConflict() jquery 1.4.2 and protoype 1.6.1 with IE 7 / 8.
This workaround seems to work : http://dev.jqueryui.com/ticket/5438

I have attached a couple of patches in comment 3 at http://dev.jqueryui.com/ticket/5438#comment:3
These patch dimensions.js and offset.js in the jQuery source and solve this problem.

Debugging further, I found:
Line 6213,
return ("scrollTo" in elem && elem.document) ? // does it walk and quack like a window?
Since the page is also having PrototypeJS, it's add "scrollTo" method to the object. So, "scrollTo" in elem is true.
About elem.document, in Opera/IE, there is always .document property for elements. So, elem.document is true.
Because of that, ("scrollTo" in elem && elem.document) will be true if there is a PrototypeJS/Mootools in Opera/IE and it will return the document size instead of element size.
