This fixes the tric also in version UI version 1.17

$(“#div”)
.resizable()
.draggable()
.removeClass(“ui-draggable”);

Great fix! If jQuery hasn't created the parent class simply add it using .wrap()

$('#box').resizable().wrap('^div class='ui-wrapper' />').parent('.ui-wrapper').draggable();

note: You'll have to replace the caret symbol (^) in the div declaration as I couldn't post it intact.

I don’t know if it’s still possible to use your workaround
$(‘#box’).resizable().parent(‘.ui-wrapper’)
In firebug I cant find parent with such class.

Could you possible post full page code that uses draggable + resizable ?
I can’t find any way to make it work for more than one div element.

Wow, thank you so much for this. I actually stumbled upon this post, while looking for a plugin to replace these, since I wasn’t able to get it to work. Now, I don’t need to, and I can stick with the jQuery UI branded plugins. Thanks. I’m always amazed at how easy these fixes can be. Definitely had a “Why didn’t I think of that” moment for this one.

They seem to work together if you remove
class=”ui-widget-content” from the resizable div
i.e. the theme causes the problems
