jQuery Plugin NOT wordpress plugin does not work in FireFox

I’m adding a jQuery plugin, NOT a wordpress plugin into a wordpress installation. It works perfectly in all browsers except Firefox. I tried multiple jQuery plugins and its the same issue with all of them when used in WordPress. Everyone of the plugins I tested worked in all browsers except Firefox when used inside of WordPress. Google Chrome gives no errors, but firebug gives this error: jQuery(“#platinumSponsors”).jMyCarousel is not a function. For every plugin I tired, I get the “is not a function” error in FireFox. I’m surprised because all the plugins work like a charm in Internet Explorer. Does anyone know a solution around this?

Thanks,
Brian
