This error appears because the mootools.js is declared twice in your page.
Once by the template, second by the EZRealty component.
Look for an option in the component to exculde the library or choose another menu for your template.
As a last resort, rename the file located here :

/components/com_ezrealty/library/testbox/js/mootools.js

to something else.

mj1256, you have two options :

Build the mootools with every class, element, etc and make sure youdon’t miss anything.
This way you need to include it once in your template.

or

Build the core and include the ‘options’ one by one.
This is tricky, because you have to know which extension uses what.

Loading two of the same, creates stability issues, crashes, errors, you know.

I remember I’ve debuged my own site and because of 2 swfobject.js were loaded, my IE was crashing with ‘Out of memory’. 🙂

For most Joomla 1.5 template, they don’t use mootools.js and caption.js at all. These two javasript libiaries are mainly used in the adiminstrator control panal. Their size are about 75K, and decrease the response speed of Joomla site. Here I introduce a method to remove the two javascript libs.

To make sure your Joomla site have the two scripts in the front site, you can look you site’s html source code and will find the following code:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/media/system/js/mootools.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/media/system/js/caption.js"></script>

To remove the above javascript’s import, you just need to add the following code at the top of your template’s index.php file.

<?php
//remove mootools.js and caption.js
$headerstuff=$this->getHeadData();
reset($headerstuff['scripts']);
foreach($headerstuff['scripts'] as $key=>$value){
unset($headerstuff['scripts'][$key]);
}
$this->setHeadData($headerstuff);
?>

Hi,
Thanks for the great tip! Right now my Website loads a bit too slow however I do not have any errors or problems with it, just want to optimzie the load time. By removing these import scripts what exactly is it doing? What type of effect will it have on my website template?

I’m not a coder so I just don’t want to end up breaking something else and I won’t be able to fix it. Maybe something that I don’t see perhaps right away, and then have problems down the road. 🙂 By using this method I am looking for ways to make my site load faster and optimize it more…thanks for any help! Oh and this is for Teline ll template.
