jQuery Update

This module facilitates an upgrade of jQuery in Drupal 5. JQuery 1.0.1 is included with Drupal 5, however it is not very well supported in the jQuery community. In order to use most current and advanced jQuery functionality you will want to update to a newer version. This module includes John Resig's compat-1.0.js plugin that provides backwards compatibility for newer versions of jQuery to work with the JS code in Drupal 5.

The tricky step with this module is that you will need to *replace* the jquery.js file in core with the jquery.js file included in the jquery_update directory. jQuery may exhibit some odd behaviors if you fail to do this and the jQuery Update module will warn you about this problem.

INSTALLATION:

1) Place this module directory in your modules folder (this will usually be
"sites/all/modules/").

2) Enable the module.

3) Copy the jquery.js file in this directory and use it to replace the one at misc/jquery.js. Note: You will receive a warning message in your site's administration pages until you perform this step correctly.

You will need to repeat step #3 anytime you upgrade your Drupal site to a newer version.

Update

A 2.x branch is now available. This includes the latest jQuery 1.2.3 with both compat-1.0 and compat-1.1.

Do note that the install process has slightly changed so a complete reinstall is needed. Read the README.txt.

jquery.js is no longer the only file that gets replaced!
