autocomplete js conflict with collective.js.jqueryui's autocomplete

[ida]

Initiated by this quest on SO: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15651455/plone-dexterity-relationchoice-widget-clashes-with-jqueryui

Would it make sense, to exclude the autocomplete-javascripts of this product and instead use the one's of plone.app.jquerytools in order to avoid redundancy and conflicts?

There is no autocomplete widget in jquerytools AFAIK.

It has been discussed on the plone core ML, please read this: http://goo.gl/QUp6D

The idea is 2.0 will use jqueryui autocomplete. After all the current javascript is the predecessor of the jqueryui one (look at the date in the code source, you will smile)

And also please read this one: https://dev.plone.org/ticket/12350

Finally bugs are not track on github by the team (even if I would have prefered)

It's collective.js.jqueryui holding the autocomplete.js, actually.

Thanks a lot the useful infos about the future of p.a.jquery.

You might want to disable the issue-function here on github, if not used.

And a general big kudo for your work on these packages!

I fixed this for plone 4.3 and it works. See:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15651455/plone-dexterity-relationchoice-widget-clashes-with-jqueryui/16516223#16516223

Here is, what I did to the code.

I am closing this because no activity happened in the last years. Please, feel free to reopen it if the issue is still relevant for Plone 5.2 or Plone 6.
