I am working on this website ( I wasn't the one made the website but I have to fix it unfortunately). I've got this error on firebug : TypeError: j(...).bxSlider is not a function
Here is my <head>

Here is my markup:

</li>
<li>
<img alt="slider" src="/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/slider-5.jpg">

</ul>
<div id="bx-pager">

</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Here is the script:
<script type="text/javascript">
var j = jQuery.noConflict();
j(document).ready(function()
{
j('.bxslider').bxSlider({
pagerCustom: '#bx-pager',
mode: 'fade'
});
});
j(function ($) {
j(document).ready(function(){
j('.slider8').bxSlider({
mode: 'vertical',
slideWidth: 300,
minSlides: 2,
slideMargin: 10
});
});
});
j(document).ready(function() {
j(".various").fancybox({
maxWidth : 450,
maxHeight : 400,
fitToView : false,
width : '70%',
height : '70%',
autoSize : false,
closeClick : false,
openEffect : 'none',
closeEffect : 'none'
});
});
</script>
As you can see I've tried to use noConflict;, because I saw lots of post on the internet with the same error and looks like most of them solved the issue with noConflict; but it's not working for me.
By the way, all the sliders were made with a plugin called Cyclone Slider, I really don't get what the previous developer did...
And the markup seems fine. I can't spot what's wrong. Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks a lot for your time!

After trying lots of different things, I've managed to solve my own problem. I've put the JavaScript files for bxSlider, easyResponsiveTabs and the scripts calling them to footer.php. But I've left the jQuery & jQuery UI files at the header.php along with the css files for the sliders.
Now everything is working well and the markup passed the validation test! If you're having same kind of error;
Also you can write to me, I can try to help.
