I m using Firefox (with Firebug), Ubuntu, Joomla 1.7, Virtuemart 2 (latest svn revision). I went to the configuration and unchecked the 'Using the Virtuemart jQuery' and saved it.
Now nothing can be saved in Administration. I get a jscript message that JQuery is not defined.
Tabs do not work, i can not edit Products, i can not edit Configuration, i can not edit anything and i can not enable again JQuery since the Save button (as well as all other script based functions) does not work any more.
And something else on this problem.
In the Front End, when i go in a product and press Add To Cart, it redirects me to the Cart page, but nothing gets added in the cart.

Same here. I've been curious if I have the same problem with the latest revision and disabled it too, because that checkbox didn't produce this problem a few days ago . Did you manage to recover from this meanwhile? I've tried to adjust the checkbox setting in the '_virtuemart_configs' database table 'config' column, but without success.
Update:Meanwhile I got my adminstration back by re-setting the following values in the table '_virtuemart_configs', column 'config' to:
google_jquery=s:1:"0";
jquery=s:1:"1";
(I missed the google_jquery=s:1:"0"; in my first attempt)
I recovered from that by going to Tools & Migration > Renew Config By File
So i reset the settings to the default ones!
Yeah, the thing is, it is not a bug, it is exactly meant that way, maybe we should add a pirate skull to it :-) .
It is meant for people who heavily work with jquery and who want to replace the jquery provided by vm with there own. Look on this page http://jqueryui.com/download, you see that you can create your own packages.
Of course VM2 does not include all, so when someone creates a plugin/component/module, which needs more functions just adds its own js file and can disable for performance the vm2 one.
Perhaps it would be a good idea to move these options into the "Dangerous Tools" section and add a big Caution!with a good red Warning! in the tooltip.
Hi,
It's a little mistake, because the checkbox disable it in Front and admin.
I send the fix for broken javascript Admin Back-End on disable it for FE in SVN files
Fixed!!!!
