Description
I suggest changing the location of the library in order to get in sync with upcoming D7, and to better ease the upgrade process of jquery_ui module.
Here is a patch that moves jquery.ui to the sites/all/libraries or sites//libraries folder. It also adds a dependency for the libraries module. the only thing that was odd was I needed to do an include_once for the libraries.module file. This may be able to be worked around by adjusting the module's weight.

oh, btw. I patched this against 1.3, simply because it is what I had on my machine. It may need to get remade against dev.

That should have read:
Here is a patch that moves jquery.ui to the
sites/all/librariesorsites/<domain>/librariesfolder#3
Thank you. I have never been able to install jquery.ui I keep getting an error that the jquery.ui is not there (installed the contents of the compressed file into /sites/all/modules/jquery_ui/jquery.ui as specified and it says very clearly that it's not there - at the top of the modules list in pink just after you check the box next to jquery ui and it as a result unchecks the box also, of course deactivating the module, never had a module that instantly unchecked itself, you are supposed to check for dependencies before even allowing the module to be checked-- the libraries are there just as specified but it goes into this mode of rejection as if they were not there) No matter what I do and I've tried everything. Quite a number of other people are having the exact same problem as I am and the people supporting the module in drup are not responding or just saying things like "you don't know how to install a module" .. "it worked for me so it should work for you" The only sense i can make is there is possibly some conflict between some other module that is relatively commonly used.

Tigerboy, your post does NOT relate to my patch. Please post in your own support thread. This patch is simply to move the jquery.ui library to a different directory.
On a side note the reason you can't get help is that you are saying, "It doesn't work" without having any real way to reproduce the problem. Please post in your own thread.
