Update to jquery 1.2

A thread to upgrade the Drupal 6-dev to jQuery 1.2 has already been started here: http://drupal.org/node/174708

Your feature request was submitted to the Drupal 5.x tree, which is still valid, but in order for the latest jQuery to be backported to the Drupal 5 tree, then a couple of other patches need to go in first before the upgrade to 1.2.

So FYI: Drupal 6 was updated to 1.1.3.1 in this thread: http://drupal.org/node/146462 with two commits -- the first one described here and the second one here.

Drupal 6 was updated to 1.1.4 here: http://drupal.org/node/170224 with this patch -- but no core javascript files were changed, and so if a future Drupal 5 branch does jump to jQuery 1.2, then you can jump directly to 1.2 after the previous two changes go in.

oops. I just realized that this request is for jQuery Update module and not the Drupal project.

But there are backwards compatibility plug-ins for jQuery 1.2 as well that can be found here: http://docs.jquery.com/Release:jQuery_1.2#jQuery_1.1_Compatibility_Plugin
