Oh, ok. Thank you. The jQuery website gave me no idea that jquery ui 1.5b4 was dependent on jquery 1.2.4a. In fact I had no idea 1.2.4a was even available.
Allright... I switched to the (nightly) 1.2.4a, and the error of course disappeared. The jqueryUI site could make it more clear that a specific jquery build is required. Also, isn't it a little strange that a beta build depends on an alpha in this case? (1.5b4 depending on 1.2.4a) ? What would I downgrade to if I wanted to run stable versions of both jquery and jquery-ui? Thanks!
