   I install it perfectly on non-based wordpress page (playin html static page),
   yet I am unable to with wordpress?
 * Any tips?

 * This is assuming you’ve added the file `mootools.js` to a folder named “js” within
   your theme.
 * Before `wp_head()` in your theme’s `header.php` file, add this:
 *     ```
       wp_enqueue_script('mootools', get_bloginfo('template_directory') .'/js/mootools.js', false, '1.1.1');
       ```

 * I’m having that problem right now.
    My mootools effect works without error on
   a static version and not at all on the wordpress version even though I have enqueued
   the scripts correctly and am not running any other scripts. It doesn’t even render
   any errors. i am at a loss!
 *     ```
       <?php wp_enqueue_script('mootools', get_bloginfo('template_directory') .'/js/mootools/mootools.js' , 'false' , '1.2.0'); ?>
       <?php wp_enqueue_script('filterExpand' , get_bloginfo('template_directory') .'/js/mootools/filterExpand.js' ,  array( 'mootools' ) , '1.2.0'); ?>
       <?php wp_head(); ?>
       ```

 * I am developing a MooTools accordion WordPress theme, which can be downloaded
   [here](http://www.themightymo.com/themightymoo). Perhaps looking at how that 
   theme is set up will help get you rolling.
