How do I get jQuery to select elements with a . (period) in their ID?

Question

Given the following classes and controller action method:

public School
{
  public Int32 ID { get; set; }
  publig String Name { get; set; }
  public Address         


        

Answer 1

I solved the issue with the solution given by jquery docs

My function:

//funcion to replace special chars in ID of  HTML tag

function jq(myid){


//return "#" + myid.replace( /(:|\.|\[|\]|,)/g, "\\$1" );
return myid.replace( /(:|\.|\[|\]|,)/g, "\\$1" );


}

Note: i remove the "#" because in my code i concat the ID with another text
