jQuery conflicts help

Hi guys,

this is my first post in these forums so forgive me if this has already been answered but I have had a look around and just can’t solve my issue.

The site i’m working on is… here
It’s a one page site that uses jquery smooth scrolling to navigate. It all worked fine until I used the tour-dates plugin that you can see in the ‘gigs’ section, for some reason that throws off the scrolling action by the height of the tour-dates container div (I think).

I don’t think it’s a problem with my smooth scrolling code which is here…

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
  function filterPath(string) {
  return string
    .replace(/^\//,'')
    .replace(/(index|default).[a-zA-Z]{3,4}$/,'')
    .replace(/\/$/,'');
  }
  var locationPath = filterPath(location.pathname);
  var scrollElem = scrollableElement('#main');
  $('a[href*=#]').each(function() {
    var thisPath = filterPath(this.pathname) || locationPath;
    if (  locationPath == thisPath
    && (location.hostname == this.hostname || !this.hostname)
    && this.hash.replace(/#/,'') ) {
      var $target = $(this.hash), target = this.hash;
      if (target) {
        var targetOffset = $target.offset().top - 130;
        $(this).click(function(event) {
          event.preventDefault();
          $(scrollElem).animate({scrollTop: targetOffset}, 1000, function() {
            location.hash = target;
          });
        });
      }
    }
  });
  // use the first element that is "scrollable"
  function scrollableElement(els) {
    for (var i = 0, argLength = arguments.length; i <argLength; i++) {
      var el = arguments[i],
          $scrollElement = $(el);
      if ($scrollElement.scrollTop()> 0) {
        return el;
      } else {
        $scrollElement.scrollTop(1);
        var isScrollable = $scrollElement.scrollTop()> 0;
        $scrollElement.scrollTop(0);
        if (isScrollable) {
          return el;
        }
      }
    }
    return [];
  }
});
</script>

because it was working fine before I installed the tour-dates plugin so I think it’s most likely that i’ve included jquery badly.

I know it’s the wrong way to do it but I just cant get any other way to work so i’ve linked it into the header using this…
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js"></script>

Could someone tell me where i’m going wrong and point me in the right direction?

Thanks
