Hoverintent working in jquery1.8.3 but not in 1.9.0?

I was working with the accordion from the jquery-ui website, but even the simple demo wasn't working for me. I traced the error to the hoverintent not being supported with jquery-1.9.1.js but works in 1.8.3.js.

You can copy the script (view source) available here, http://jqueryui.com/accordion/#hoverintent. Change it to this, 

 <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.js"></script>

and it will stop working.

Any suggestions on how I should fix it? All the other part of my code are compatible with jquery-1.9.1.js.

When testing code in jQuery 1.9.x please also use migrate-js.

A lot of deprecated features have been removed in 1.9.x and the migrate-js contains the removed features and shows you what they are through console messages.

In your case it is as per migrate-js message, it seems that hoverintent is using a removed feature:

JQMIGRATE: jQuery.event.handle is undocumented and deprecated

Adding the migrate-js file reference in addition to 1.9.x makes it work again.

However, as mentioned by Kevin B in the comment on the original post, the code is an example so you either need to upgrade the code yourself or keep the migrate-js file reference in your application, which is not recommended as a permanent solution though.

There is more on their blog which are a very good read
