There is a problem with encodeURIComponent:

After your server side script decoded the json data, it must make a "decodeURIComponent".

Depending on what language you use, this could be a pain in the a**.

My suggestion is to use just:

----

tData = tData.replace(/\\\\/g,'\\\\\\\\');

tData = tData.replace(/\\"/g,'\\\\"');

ruleGroup += "\\"data\\":\\"" + tData + "\\"}";

----

with this you should not need to make any server side changes.

Hello,

Thank you for this. This is true.

I'm not sure, but maybe it is a good idea to use encodeURIComponent.

Best Regards

Tony

problem:

Advance searching does not escape strings,

thats why a \\ or a " will break the json format.

reproduce:

- open New in version 3.5 -> Advanced Searching

- click on the search button

- insert

<< Inv No equal \\ >> or

<< InvNo equal " >>

(you can search for any column..)

--> you will see the whole list instead off the ones equal to \\ or "

this all hapens in jquery.searchFilter.js in line 438

solution:

\\ or " needs to be escaped with an additional \\
