Well, the functions all run now, but I can't run jquery in them. Since the functions are defined outside jQuery(document).ready(function($){...}); I precede them on the page with:

var $ = jQuery;

But jquery commands in the functions only run if I put that statement INSIDE the function. I thought declaring it outside makes it global, and therefore available in the function.

Also, can I declare this globally in one place (instead of at the top of every js file) so that it's always available?
