jQuery cycle

Hi I'm using Sitefinity 4.0 with jQuery 1.4.2 and jQuery cycle 2.99.  I'm getting this error in the FireBug console when I load the page:

$("#cycle-banner").cycle is not a function

However, I've found that if I remove the following line the page works fine:

<script src="/ScriptResource.axd?d=fZV473iMxRwJeK92ax_8r3T3f-9pNxeYksZwnWRb9CwPyBZwg-Hg7Cljnl_lcIdUXASFfTcV82mPJdi8fzpjCWMB-SiRjjEe4K12FI-969_Z7JKRsMB3yO0gZQzpYvT3cbzIkKLtTUNMl6SNhUPEP2WXq2IbYW3a1OTMOHf94OQtCwKtt7JvDSbYZ-j7zFuI0&amp;t=ffffffff82d3fa2f" type="text/javascript"></script>

Can someone please help?

Thanks!
Devin

I've had better luck putting my jquery plugins and code at the bottom of the page. For whatever reason sitefinity loads it's own copy of jquery in the middle of the markup and it tends to create problems.

Thanks Mark that seems to have done the trick!
