Drupal AJAX forms broken in jQuery 1.5

Subscribing :)

This is a case where I wish there was an 'in progress' status because the port has been started. Now, where is that great git migration to make my life easier?

Quite the complicated CVS commit message here:
http://drupal.org/cvs?commit=498002

• Updates to jQuery 1.5
• Updates to jQuery UI 1.8.9
• Adds the libraries in the jQuery UI external directory to hook_library()
• Replaces jQuery UI's CSS files with the 1.8.9 ones
• Moved from HEAD to DRUPAL-7--1

Can anyone give me edit/maintainership permissions on jQuery Update so that I can setup the Release nodes? Thanks!

Drupal ajax forms don't work with jquery 1.5

That's a bummer.

This would make sense since the ajax section is what change the most in 1.5.

I like jquery_update but maybe this should be a drupal 8.x issue with intentions for a drupal 7 point release?

any thoughts?

@ericduran we should not expect jQuery 1.5 to ever show up in Drupal 7 core. It might be nice but changing APIs is not something core does.

I've updated to jQuery 1.5.1 (which fixed a bunch of bugs and regressions) and updated jQuery Form to 2.67. Is the problem still present? Is there a place in core I can reproduce this? In my testing everything worked without problems.

@mfer, I'm aware.

I'm just hoping that some of these changes will make it in the Drupal 7 release cycle since there have been mention of adding not breaking API changes to D7 at some point in its release. (Here's to hoping :))

I just checked every Ajax example from the examples module and Chaos Tools AJAX Demo from ctools. Everything works now with jQuery 1.5.1 and jQuery Form 2.67.

It's broken in my case. A quick fix by now is changing the 'dataType' in ajax.js from 'json' to 'text json'
I will keep researching to see if there is a better fix than hacking core files.

@13 : Not working here... any other idea?
