Telerik and jquery

[BettyRNorah]

Hi

I'm working on an application I received from a client and they've used some telerik web controls. Telerik apparently includes its own version of jquery 1.3.2, while I'm using 1.4.1. I'm experiencing some weird javascript issues and I'd like to rule out the older jquery as a source of the problem. Is there a way to tell the Telerik controls not to automatically include the 1.3.2 version of jquery if I've already got jquery on the page elsewhere?

Hi BettyRNorah,

The Kendo UI for jQuery is shipped with jQuery version 1.12.4. However, that does not mean that you are forced to use that specific version. Newer versions of jQuery are also compatible with the major releases of Kendo UI. Below you will find a list of the jQuery-supported versions.

- https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/intro/supporting/jquery-support

In addition to that, you do not have to add jQuery in case it is already loaded on the page. JQuery script should be included a single time, before the kendo scripts as described in the Troubleshooting article linked below (please check both - jQuery and Widget sections):

I hope this helps
