I second this suggestion. Most other meta-languages allow backslash-escaping, I don't see why it would be a bad idea here. - Brian I didn't like the idea of hacking jQuery to make selectors with these special chars work, but as it turned out, that is what should be expected! From the CSS

[jQuery] Custome selectors use : as seperator, which is an official character for id's

Hi I wonder why jquery is using the : as seperator for custom selectors as this is just another character which can be used in any element id. In other words this means that for example if I have an id=my:elem this element is the not selectable like $('#my:id') as the regexp on line 949: re2 =
