I downloaded jquery-ui-1.8.2.zip first via a link provided in the official jQuery page and then from google sources.
When unzipped, they both contained ‘jquery-1.4.2.js’.

I am trying to use the “automcomplete” feature which should be in the 1.8 package, but when using the file from the mentioned zip, I only get “TypeError: $(“#inputId”).autocomplete is not a function”.

Seems like the jquery file is indeed the the same as the name says.

I also tried loading an earlier version of jQuery (1.8.16). The zip had “jquery-1.6.2.js”.

Now please explain if there is a reason for this. For me it seems erroneous.
Our project is currently using jQuery 1.7.2.

Also the version 1.8.14 zip has jquery-1.5.1.js.

    You’re confusing jQuery with jQuery-UI. The latest version of jQuery is 1.7.2, the latest version of jQuery-UI is 1.8.22. jQuery-UI requires a minimum of jQuery 1.3.2 to function, so be sure you’re including both files in your page, with jQuery loaded first.
