ID selector Issue

[rajParticipant]

Hi,

There is one case, where I need to build the jqxDropdown dynamically on the fly by creating the one <DIV> element and assign a id in the following format,

<div id="cell[0].companyName"></div><div id="cell[0].branchName"></div>
..
..

If I turn that newly created <DIV> into jqxDropdownList, then the drop down list is not getting generated.

Suppose if I change the element id into any of the following format it is working fine,

<div id="companyName01"></div>
<div id="companyName_01"></div>
<div id="companyName-01"></div>

Can somebody help me how to escape any special characters from ID and build that into jqxDropdownList?

Looking for a solution.

Regards,
Raj

Hello Raj,

JavaScript code cannot be set as an id in HTML. You would have to use jQuery’s methods to achieve this, e.g.:

var dropDownList = $('<div id="' + cell[0].companyName + '"></div>');
$('body').append(dropDownList);
