Support jQuery >= 1.9

As we do in admin_menu, we should drop IE6 support. See here: https://drupal.org/comment/8255187

Why? IE6 is dead! See here:

Ill post a patch in the next few hours! :)

Here's the patch. Panels is still working smoothly in IE7+ :)

Patch re-roll via panels GIT 7.x-3.x with format-patch, now applied to drustack_extra.make and tested with jquery 1.10.2 without error message, thank you very much ;-)

So this looks to be just some IE specific code to make panels work in IE6. Can someone verify for me the following browsers still work with panels?

MSIE 8,9,10 (7 is said to work) on windows 7, 8 (depending on msie version)

I've tested Firefox and Chrome on OSX and don't see any issues (with or w/o jQuery update enabled), mainly because the code is only supposed to work with IE. However, I want to verify this doesn't break anything within IE before it gets committed. Sadly I don't have resources to spin up those other environments, I hope someone else here can!

I'm pretty sure we're good to go, but just in case. Thanks!

I was able to get some testers to verify other versions of IE. We're good here.

I wrote the patch and get no reward? sad story!

@axe312 +1 for your patch. It fixes a roadblock I hit this morning. If you drop in here at lunchtime today, I will buy you a beer. :-)

If anyone needs it, here is the same patch re-rolled for the current D6 Dev branch

I'm note sure if there was any reason for this not fixing my issue, but I have the exact same (with latest version of panels) and I can't get it working on 1.9 or above...

Any one else having problems?

if you can post the errors you're getting, that'd help. I'll review patches, as long as the patch also supports jquery that is shipped with D7 core.

No problems thanks for the help :)

I actually just enabled 1.10 and this is working for me.

i did change the provider to google, not sure if that helped as well

Restoring status then.

I am using jQuery update 7.x-2.7 and Panels 7.x-3.8+0-dev

jQuery Update Settings
Default jQuery version 1.10
Alt jQuery version for Admin 1.7

Panels IPE editor does not load when clicking "Customize This Page"

Receive these errors in Console:

Interestingly enough, the Overlay seems to be causing this issue somehow.

I could never get this to work properly, so what I did was use https://www.drupal.org/project/jquery_update 7.x-3.0-alpha3 which lets me select a jQuery version per theme. I am using one theme for panels pages, one theme for my Bootstrap 3/SooperThemes page which need higher jQuery version.
