[Koha-devel] Plan for upgrading jQuery in the staff client

[Owen Leonard]

> https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=15883

I've attached a proof-of-concept patch to the bug which does the following:

- Adds jQuery 1.12.0
- Adds jQueryUI 1.11.4
- Adds a new version of doc-head-close.inc,
doc-head-close-jquery-1.12.0.inc, to be included on pages which have
been tested with the new versions of jQuery and jQueryUI.
- Updates the staff client home page to use the new include.

If that patch gets approved I suggest we move forward in this way:

- Start testing other pages with the new include and update JavaScript
as necessary on a page-by-page or section-by-section basis.
- Require that any new page use the new include file.
- Require that any patch which changes existing JavaScript use the new
include and thus the new versions of jQuery and jQueryUI.

Comments welcome,

  Owen
