 * I am working on a wordpress project i have made a custom template for a page 
   i have made a forum now i am applying Validation using a Jquery Validation Engine
   i am using this code in header.php in <header> tag
 *     ```
       <?php
       if (is_page_template('order.php')) {?>
       <script src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory');?>/js/jquery.js" type="text/javascript">
       </script>
       <script src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory');?>/js/english.js" type="text/javascript">
       </script>
       <script src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory');?>/js/jquery.validationEngine.js" type="text/javascript">
       </script>
       <link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/js/val.css" type="text/css" />
       <?php }?>
       ```
   
 * There is also a Jquery image slider running in the page
    so if i include above
   code after wp_head() in header.php my validation functions work on form but slider
   doesnt i get this error
 * `jQuery("div#slider").nivoSlider is not a function`
 * if i place it before wp_head() my validation functions dont work but slider does
   i know there some conflict i get this error that
 * `jQuery("#formid").validationEngine is not a function`
 * this what i use to bind my form with validation
 *     ```
       jQuery(document).ready(function(){
                       // binds form submission and fields to the validation engine
                       jQuery("#order_frm").validationEngine();
                   });
       ```

 * You will need to do the following:
    1. Enqueue the script (language and core)
    2. Enqueue the styles
    3. Register the styles
    4. Add custom JS to header
 * Ideally, you should build a plugin for this or customize your theme. The latter
   is usually the easier route for beginners.
 * In your header files, add the JS and CSS files. Make sure you use the correct
   file location or it will not work. View the source and test the links that appear.
 * Hope that helps…
