I''m trying to do an attribute selector with a bracket, but am getting an error in IE7, FF2 on Win (see below). Are brackets in attribute selectors disallowed? Can I escape brackets somehow? Or maybe this is a bug? I''m calling $$(''input[name="perms[9][]"]''); Thanks, Ken Snyder Firebug backtrace when calling $$(''input[name="perms[9][]"]''): - template has no properties initialize(undefined, undefined) create() attr(["[9]", "9", undefined, 4 more...]) <-- looks like a regex that doesn''t allow brackets compileXPathMatcher() compileMatcher() initialize("input[name="perms[9][]"]") create() findChildElements(Document perms.php, ["input[name="perms[9][]"]"]) $$() toggleByItem(9) onclick(click clientX=0, clientY=0) this.template = template.toString(); I''m using it in a situation where I have a matrix of checkboxes with an "all" button column. Simplified example here: http://snippetsnap.com/snippets/354 (Note please ignore the space in "$ $()"--snippetsnap.com can''t handle "$$()" for some reason) For now, I''ve switched to using tr ids to identify the checkboxes, but using the name attribute is nice because it is less markup. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.

Might be a bug. Another user reported a similar problem on July 11th, and no good resolution was offered. Search for a ticket. If you don''t find one, I think it''s worth opening one.

Follow up: Tom, I think I found the ticket you mentioned (#8598) but it references a Ruby class. Some tests on the offending regex led me to discover that only a small tweak was needed in order to support brackets. Patch with unit tests here: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/attachment/ticket/9157/AttributesWithBrackets.diff#preview Ken Snyder Tom Gregory wrote:> Might be a bug.
