Release
Istanbul, Jakarta, Kingston
Cause
With Istanbul release onwards, UI11 is not working as expected since it is deprecated as per document, hence system throws "$j is not defined error" on console and catalog client scripts are not executed.
Resolution
Activate UI16 plugin and set the property "glide.ui.doctype" to "true", so that instance will be pushed to use the latest User Interface and libraries.
