The Jquery UI 1.8.11 script I'm using in the OpeningHours data editor conflicts with the Jquery autocomplete plugin used by the Tags data editor (the latter extends Jquery with the autocomplete method, which has also been added to Jquery UI).
I could just drop Jquery UI and extract the autocomplete functionality and make sure it works independently, however I do feel we should be able to reference the latest version of Jquery within our controls?
Ok, so I've been doing a bit of Javascript debugging and it seems to me that I cannot reference a higher version of Jquery because it simply breaks OOB data editors (for example Tags) when these data editors make calls to extended methods (their extensions/plugins are not loaded properly in the newer Jquery version).
Jquery UI 1.8.11 does not function properly with the Jquery contained in Umbraco, so that library cannot be used either.
It looks like I'm forced to write a custom autocomplete or fall back to the deprecated one which succeeds Jquery UI autocomplete..

No package creators bumped into this before ?
You can edit the jquery ui file like this:

Hey Ove,
That actually seems to have solved the issue, all it took was this:
jq151(".oh_hoursAutocomplete").autocomplete({ /* Jquery UI autocomplete call */ ..Thanks for pointing this out!
is working on a reply...
