3.0 CellNav: Jquery v's Jquery lite

[PaulL1]

In the cellnav feature I'm getting an exception within my application, at line 419 within setFocused():

          function setFocused(){
            var div = $elm.find('div');
            div.focus();
            div.attr("tabindex", 0);
          }

This is triggered when you use the arrow keys to move around a grid with cellNav enabled. In the tutorial it works fine, in my own application it gives an error that the focus() method is undefined. Interestingly, this appears to be a difference between full jQuery and Jquery lite. That is to say, the tutorial includes jquery, and if I modify my application to also include full jquery then the error goes away.

Is it still the intent that ui-grid not have a dependency in jQuery? If so, is it perhaps time to think about taking it out of the tutorial site?

It's only on the tutorial site because it makes debugging during development much easier. I'm fine with taking it out and maybe have some sort of auto-inject on the development side.

This is good news. ng-grid 2.x's dependency on JQuery has just bout dragged our project to a halt due to its memory leaking in IE9. Is there any documentation describing how JQuery is used, and perhaps how ng-grid could be de-jqueryized? It looks like our only hope is to take the 2.0.13 code and excise JQuery completely. Anyone have a fork that did this already? 😄

I'm also curious what JS tools anyone knows about regarding IE9 memory leak resolution. I have not been able to find much out there in Google. Payware would be fine.

Will angular.element(div).focus() fix it?

I removed the jquery dependency from tutorials. Removing from unit tests will take a good bit of work.
