    <p>We are upgrading both jQuery and jqGrid in a project and found a possible bug in jqGrid. The versions we are working with:</p> <ul> <li>jQuery 1.4.1 upgraded to 1.7.1</li> <li>jqGrid 3.8.2 upgraded to 4.2.0 </li> </ul> <p>We are using the colmodel's index parameter both for sorting and searching/filtering. The problem we have found appears when the index string contains a dot. E.g. "Customer.Name".</p> <pre><code>$('#grid').jqGrid({ url: 'some/controller/action', datatype: 'json', colNames: ['Customer Name'], colModel: [{ name: 'CustomerName', index: 'Customer.Name' }] }); $('#grid').jqGrid('filterGrid', '#filter', { filterModel: [{ label: 'Customer Name', name: 'CustomerName', stype: 'text' }] }); </code></pre> <p>When the search is used the browser throws an exception as follows:</p> <pre><code>Syntax error, unrecognized expression: [name=Customer.Name] http://localhost:8000/Scripts/jquery-1.7.1.js Line 4179 </code></pre> <p>The exception is originating from row 465 in grid.addons.js which looks like this:</p> <pre><code>447: nm = this.index; 465: v = $("input[name="+nm+"]",self).val(); </code></pre> <p>The code is inside an each operator and gets the value from the colModel/filterModel, so <code>this</code> is each element in that array.</p> <p>After some research we found that in jQuery 1.5 the attribute selector requires quotes around the value, which the grid doesn't seem to use and thus failing when searching for the element.</p> <p>Question is: Is there any workaround for this or should we post a bug to jqGrid and hope they fix it soon?</p> <p>We have tried escaping the dot and surrounding the string with quotes, but nothing helps.</p>

    1. COYou should include more code which shows *how* you use jqGrid. If you use `grid.addons.js` it means that you don't chosen the standard way. Probably you have an issue with `filterGrid` which are removed from jqGrid? There are other simple ways to send information from the external searching control to the server (see [here](http://stackoverflow.com/a/2928819/315935) for example).

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
