<ul></ul><p>Eric, do you plan to do that many UI changes in master that it justifies the additional client load (and maybe plugin breakage)? I'd rather have it included in <a href="https://www.chiliproject.org/versions/show/7" class="version">3.0.0</a> and push it as the new default from that on. Also I think the new design stuff will be that awesome that we won't want to look back soon :)</p>
<p>Apart from that, I'm all in favor of using jQuery + jQuery UI. We also started to use <a href="http://harvesthq.github.com/chosen/" class="external">Chosen</a> which does some awesome stuff to select boxes.</p> ChiliProject - Feature #658: Include jquery and jquery uihttps://www.chiliproject.org/issues/658?journal_id=27162011-10-13T20:02:16+02:00Eric Davis

<p>What do you mean by client load? Like download size (install package and page size)?</p>
<p>I haven't seen any plugin breakage yet and I've seen one install with 4 different versions of jquery loaded on one page. Somehow jquery still worked...</p>
<p>The <strong>biggest</strong> UI thing I want to add to 2.x is better help. I think Jan had a plugin that was like this but I'd like to have more "inline" help for users. Things to answer questions like "What does Watch do?". This would be a long term feature so the sooner we can have the code to support it, the better. (Long term meaning: code can be done quickly but the documentation and translations will take a long time to create and refine).</p>

<p>Looks interesting, we should discuss that further. I like the idea but we'd need to watch non-javascript compatibility.</p> ChiliProject - Feature #658: Include jquery and jquery uihttps://www.chiliproject.org/issues/658?journal_id=27792011-10-28T22:31:22+02:00Eric Davis
<ul></ul><p>An older version of jquery is included in #263's pull request. Once that's committed I'll upgrade the version, add jquery UI, and fix a known bug (documented in the application.js).</p>
<p>Lets just pass on putting this into stable.</p> ChiliProject - Feature #658: Include jquery and jquery uihttps://www.chiliproject.org/issues/658?journal_id=28512011-11-07T03:26:30+01:00Eric Davis
<ul><li><strong>Target version</strong> set to <i>3.0.0</i></li><li><strong>Status</strong> changed from <i>Open</i> to <i>Closed</i></li></ul><p>I've added jQuery v1.7, jquery ui 1.8.16, and smoothness theme to unstable (<a href="https://www.chiliproject.org/projects/chiliproject/repository/revisions/3409f5b6202e25fdce217cc083702762b150da96" class="changeset" title="[#658] Include jQuery v1.7, jquery ui 1.8.16, and smoothness theme">3409f5b</a>). The smoothness theme is a nice clean white-gray based theme for the UI elements. (Visit the <a href="http://jqueryui.com/themeroller" class="external">themes</a>, click Gallery on the left, and then Smoothness)</p>
<p>When we start working with ChiliProject themes more we might want to take a look at letting each theme pick which jQuery UI theme to use but smoothness should be good enough for a default for now.</p>
