resizable does not seem to work with latest code

Replying to [ticket:2790 tcarnell]:

hi, I noticed that resizing my own widgets stop working when I started using the latest code from svn/head. However, the jquery resizable demo also does not work, found here: http://docs.jquery.com/UI/Resizables When I go to the page, firebug informs me that "$.widget is not a function" and the resize functionality does not work. When I go to the demos here: http://dev.jquery.com/view/tags/ui/1.5b2/demos/ui.resizable.html (which seem to use version 1.2.4a) the resize functionality DOES work. Certainly, the demo should work. However, I am somewhat confused as to which version I 'should' be using, for example, where do I find jquery-1.2.4a.js? I am very sorry if I have done something stupid or misunderstood something vital... cheers, tom.

Also, the 'real world' image cropper demo does not work:

http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/ui/demos/real-world/image-cropper/

ok, so, resizable works with the following includes:

(version 1.5b2)

http://localhost/jqueryjs-ui-1.5b2/jquery-1.2.4a.js

http://localhost/jqueryjs-ui-1.5b2/ui.base.js

http://localhost/jqueryjs-ui-1.5b2/ui.draggable.js

http://localhost/jqueryjs-ui-1.5b2/ui.resizable.js

but NOT with:

(version 1.5b3)

http://localhost/jqueryjs-ui-1.5b3/jquery-1.2.4b.js

http://localhost/jqueryjs-ui-1.5b3/ui.core.js

http://localhost/jqueryjs-ui-1.5b3/ui.draggable.js

http://localhost/jqueryjs-ui-1.5b3/ui.resizable.js

using the above, version 1.5b3 I recieve no javascript errors, but the resize handles just do not work.
