I should mention one more piece of information.
Under my root folder (public_html)

I have one folder called javascripts (where prototype and scriptaculus
lives, plus all the individual js files)

I also have another folder called includes, within the includes folder
are sub folders that contain som js files. I don''t think this should
be a conflict as they exist and are called to seperately but thought
it was worth mentioning.
