jQuery 1.6.3 & 1.6.4 support

[JangoSteve]

jQuery 1.6.3 broke some stuff on jquery-ujs. Until it's fixed, I'm hesitant to make it the default for jquery-rails. I opened a ticket in the jquery bug tracker here: http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/10202

In the meantime, I'll open this ticket to keep track and let people know why jquery-rails is staying at 1.6.2 for the time being.

Just tested, and jquery 1.6.4 still has this issue.

1.6.4 also fixes a bunch of other bugs. I'd recommend updating jquery-rails and letting users decide which version of the gem they want.

I can't package jquery-rails with a version of jquery that breaks jquery-rails. However, anyone who would like to use jquery 1.6.3/4 is welcome to put the new jquery in their vendor/assets/javascripts directory and require that in their application.js instead of the one that comes vendored with jquery-rails.

I will hopefully be working on a test-case and fix for jquery soon though, so hopefully they can pull it in for the next release.

[JangoSteve]

I finished the test-case and fix for this, and created a pull request in jquery. It sounds like they're not convinced it's a regression, though I disagree. However, at least I understand the problem a bit better and have hacked our test suite to cope for now.

TL;DR jquery-rails v1.0.16 has jquery 1.6.4 and jquery-ui 1.8.16.
