Outline designer module with jquery update 1.3.2 [drag & drop issue]

I upgraded to jquery 1.3.2 because I needed to use Jquery UI 1.7 , before updating, the admin book page re-ordering elements was working well , but now the dragging became annoying and needs 1 more click after releasing the mouse to save the draggable items weight via Ajax. In addition, the firebug console is displaying an error as follow:

uncaught exception: Syntax error, unrecognized expression:

Also I noticed that outline designer module overrides the:
Drupal.tableDrag.prototype.onDrop function as it use it to save the weight via ajax.

If I disable the jquery update module and get back to the ordinary tabledrag.js , everything works well ! Any help ?
