This problem describe in other posts - but all they stay without any answers and commentary form developers.
Question to jQueryUI developers:
1. Why You remove useful feature "navigation" from accordion ? It was really useful thing but now impossible to use it AND I can't see nothing to replace this function - no API for do it manually. Really, why ?
2. What solution for now for repeate "navigation" functional ? In theory we can find <A> tag:
- var current = $accordion.find("a").filter(navigationFilter).eq(0);
but this useless because in new accordion property "active" can be only NUMBER ! At first look we can try find all <A> tags in our accordion, check them in loop BUT accordion may contains other <A> tags (in content panels). It's really no way to implement this feature manually in latest build ?
