jQuery/jQueryUI conflict

Question

I am using some jquery files for auto complete and datetime picker control but 3 files among them are conflicting:

1. Two files for autocomplete are

Answer 1

That's probably because you are including jQuery 2 times. An old version and a newer version.

I would recommend you try and use the most recent versions of both jQuery and jQuery UI and check if everything still works.

Answer 2

If you want to include both the js files you can..

 <!-- load jQuery 1_8_3 -->
    <script  src="../assets/js/jquery-1.8.3.min.js"></script> 
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var jQuery_1_8_3 = $.noConflict(true);
    </script>

    <!-- load jQuery 1.4.2 -->
    <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery/jquery-1.4.2.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var jQuery_1_4_2= $.noConflict(true);
    </script>

Its better to avoid multiple versions in the page..and its better to use appropriate jquery-UI Version with the jquery version

Answer 3

If you try only these, i think you are good to go:

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.js">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.1/jquery-ui.js">
</script>

No need to add other versions of jquery.
