Question

I have written a jquery script to dynamically load a form on a web page:

<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#reserveringskeuze").change(onSelectChange);
});
function onSelectChange(){
var selected = $("#reserveringskeuze option:selected");     
var output = "";
    if(selected.val() != 0){
    output = selected.text();
}
if(selected.val() != 0){
$("#output").load("/reserveren/" + output)
$("#output").html(output);
}
}
</script>

This works well in most browsers, except Opera 9.80 (haven’t test other opera versions). In most browsers request uri will be like /reserveren/bungalow/ in Opera the request uri becomes /reserveren/%09%09%09%09%09%09bungalow/ I don’t know why those vertical tabs signs ( %09 ) are added.

Any idea?

Answer 1

output = $.trim(selected.text());

Looks like Opera is selecting the tabs. Trimming it should remove the extra tabs.
