Doesn't work with jQuery UI 1.9.0+

[MikeKingery]

When I updated jQuery UI to version 1.9.0 or higher I start getting the following error:

cannot call methods on AddToCal prior to initialization; attempted to call method 'close'

This stems from the following call within toggleMenu:

$('.ui-addtocal').AddToCal( 'close' );

Hi Mike,

Thanks for looking into this. I need all the help I can get to keep this maintained;-)

To be honest, I am moving away from jQuery UI wherever possible and not using on new projects. So I'm wondering if rather than make it jQuery UI 1.9 compatible, would it be best to refactor this completely to remove the jQueryUI dependency?

I haven't done much plugin development with jQuery UI so I'll go with whatever is your suggestion.

Removing dependency on jQuery UI is a good idea, because the download is very large (can be 200 kbytes plus). Currently trying to use this and falling foul of this problem - is there a known workaround?

I made this work wtih 1.9 by making the following changes in jquery.addtocal.js:

1. Changed "selected" event to "select" when intializing the menu widget in _create().
2. Changed "deactivate" calls to "collapse" on the menu property
3. Changed $('.ui-addtocal').AddToCal('close') to $('.ui-addtocal').find('input').AddToCal('close');

@cincobyte good stuff. If you can send a pull request with your changes, I'm happy to roll them in.

Hi,
We have updated the jquery to 1.9.1 and jqueryui to 1.11.3 and getting below issues:
Error : this.menu.'element' is undefined at t.(anonymous function).(anonymous function).toggleMenu
Please help and suggest a workaround.
Thanks,
