The "Use jQuery to sort" option for image sorting will let me drag the images to a new sort order but when I hit save it says nothing was changed. I have determined that it is not related to the cache, clean URLs option, or site maintenance. I have 6.x-2.0-alpha1 which is used by Colorbox. It is jQuery 1.3.2. The same issue effects 6.x-3.0-beta1 as tried switching versions to see if it changed anything.

Does the non-jquery sort work? http://example.com/node/[NID]/sort/no_jquery will give it to you even if you have the jquery one turned on. You refer to a version of 6.x-2.0-alpha1 - what module is at that version?

Bumping this down to a support request until we determine there's a problem with the code itself for sure.

Yes it does work with it turned off. The module is http://drupal.org/project/jquery_update which is used by Colorbox.

Meh, the nightmare that is jquery interdependencies and Drupal strikes again.

So, colorbox requires jquery_update. Great. Installing jquery_update will install jquery version 1.3.2. Also great.

What's not great, is that if you use jquery_ui, jquery_ui recommends that you download an install jquery.ui (libraries) version 1.6. Version 1.6 of jquery_ui is not compatible with jquery version 1.3.2.

To add to the confusion, the jquery site recommends using jquery_ui version 1.8 with jquery 1.3.2+. However, jquery.ui version 1.8 is incompatible with all versions of jquery_ui.module (even dev as of today - see http://drupal.org/node/749126).

So, I was able to reproduce your problem by installing jquery_update, and I was finally able to fix it by:

1) install latest recommended version of jquery_update
2) install latest recommended version of jquery_ui
3) install jquery_ui libraries version *1.7* into the jquery.ui folder as indicated in the readme.

Clear all Drupal caches, empty all browser caches, and hit the sort page.

This is already in the documentation, right? So we can probably close this.
