jQuery selector for inputs with square brackets in the name attribute

Question

I\'m trying to select this element which has square brackets in the name attribute:

Answer 1

You can use backslash to quote "funny" characters in your jQuery selectors:

$('#input\\[23\\]')

For attribute values, you can use quotes:

$('input[name="weirdName[23]"]')

Now, I'm a little confused by your example; what exactly does your HTML look like? Where does the string "inputName" show up, in particular?
