[wp-hackers] i love wordpress support for php functions, but this what happens with every upgrade of jquery...

[Konrad Karpieszuk]

ok, thank you for this answer, really!

but what can i do now? i still have some websites not upgraded and now i
know that when i do this, this will break .tabs() on them. i see two
solution:

- upgrade and change theme code (all occurencies of 'selected into
'active'), this will take me a lot of time

- create plugin with .js which will add those things. but... i dont know
how :) can anyone give me a tip how to add option to .tabs() which will
just delegate things to new one? i know it is not wordpress question, but
maybe somebody know exact link to help
