TypeError: jQuery(...).attr(...) is undefined

After I updated Quark I now get this firebug error when clicking on the navigational buttons on a 3rd party module… “TypeError: jQuery(...).attr(...) is undefined”

Before the Quark update the navigational buttons on the module worked fine. What's wrong?

Thanks

Your 3rd party module probably doesn't support the newest joomla version. Update the module or take contact with the 3rd party module.

Could you please provide me with a URL to your website, either here or via PM (click the “Private Message” text underneath my avatar) so that I may analyze it? It is a lot easier for us to diagnose issues when we have a live site to examine.

Hi

I cannot see this error in console. Can You please tell me the exact url to the page where this happens ? Also what to click. Or is it fixed already ?

Hi

No it has not been fixed. It's the module on the frontpage called SHOWBIZ. Click on the navigator buttons and you will notice they are not working. There is also a warning message in firebug when you click on the buttons.

Hi

Ok, thank You for guidelines, but this is not our module, so I'm not sure what do You want me to do with it. You should contact this module's developer. I think it is using a different jQuery version than newest joomla is.

From my side I can only advice to use Easy jQuery plugin and try to overwrite the joomla jQuery with older one. I've checked and the scripts from this module are dated 2012, so I would also try to use a newest version of it.

I got this from the module's developer...

"Hi. I see that gavick script take over the buttons.

it's not showbiz related. Please check with the theme support."

Hi

The line of script has nothing to do with buttons. It's a simple condition checking if url in link has "mailto" in it's content. Problem is that attr() function cannot be found in jQuery library, but it's a standard function. So I believe module is loading some older library which is overriding the newer one and causing troubles. Some kind of this issue. Try Easy jQuery to force one jQuery library, this may help.

Ok. I might just keep it safe and go with the nsp module instead.
Thanks Teitbite!
