Question

Whenever I am trying to print something that contains : symbol, jQuery triggers error

Uncaught Error: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: :

and when I try to print time, such as, 09:00, It triggers

Uncaught Error: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: unsupported pseudo: 00

Why it happens? My Ajax call is

jQuery("#_dob").change(function() {
                    jQuery.ajax({
                        url: "<?php echo $this->getUrl('deliverybydatepro/index/index') ?>",
                        data: "checkIn="+jQuery(this).val()+"&type=calendar",
                        type: "GET",
                        dataType: "html",
                        success: function(data) {
                           var $response=jQuery(data);
                           jQuery("#div1").html(data);
                        }
                    });
    });

In second Second page, If i echoes something having :, i m getting the above errors.

Any idea?

Answer 1

why are you writing like var $response=jQuery(data); ? if your response is 09:00 , it will be jQuery("09:00"). It will be problem.

I think , var $response=jQuery(data); is not require.

Your code should be

success: function(data) {
    jQuery("#div1").html(data);
}
