Hi Tony and thank you for great job.

But I have a little question for you. Why don’t you use the $("[id='myid']") instead the $("#myid") ?

Because when you use the #, jquery don’t allow special characters. But when you use [id='myid'] you can use any type of IDs. For me it’s more reliable.

For example you can do: $("[id='my@special|ID#35']"). This is impossible whith the # ID selector.

Thank you in advance for your help!

jQuery do allows to use meta-characters (special characters) in the id. One needs just excape the meta-characters. See here for details. To be able to use meta-characters inside of ids in the code of jqGrid are used the method $.jgrid.jqID. So instead of the usage code like $("#cb_"+t.p.id) in the jqGrid code will be allways used $("#cb_"+$.jgrid.jqID(t.p.id)).

Best regards
Oleg
