Hi!

Is is safe tu update jquery on drupal 5 from jqueryUpdate (1.1.2) to latest (1.2.3)?

I can replace jquery.js in jquery_update module, or will add it into theme after all other javascripts.

The problem is that then javascript in drupal (collapsible tabs, etc.) doesn't work correctly.

What do you think, Must I use only jquery in jquery update or is there some solution how to get latest jquery into drupal 5 (5.7) ?

I am working on new module to Drupal, and I need there latest jQuery and simple solution for everybody who will use this modul for update to latest jquery.

Thanks

I had updated one a few months ago, and it caused some of the functionality that Drupal Core uses with jQuery to dysfunction. I suggest using the jQuery Update module.

I'm having this issue as well.

A new dropdown CSS+jQuery header that I've created by using 'http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/ddsmoothmenu.htm' uses 1.2.6.

After I linked it in my page, the page still worked correctly, but when you go to edit the content, the collapsible tabs no longer work. Hopefully the jQuery_update module will allow both of them to function, otherwise I will have to resort to creating a new header with an older version of jQuery.

This ended up working great with the latest version 1.2.6 (jQuery_update module)

There are other non-module ways to update this that involve the template.php file that essentially do the same thing as the module, and use the module's files.

The jQuery update development snapshot from "2008-Aug-02" was the one I used. Collapsible tabs work now.
