[Solved] Bug removing folumn filter with apostrophe

[Omar Piani]

Hi great telerik,

i've found a little bug:

Firebug returns :

uncaught exception: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: id$=d'alessandro]
Line 0

after filtering a column with a string with apostrophes (d'alessandro is a common italian surname)
filter work correcly, but i cant remove the filter, if i click filter icon, nothing appends, and i get the error.
A normal problem of not escaped apostrophes on javascript?

regards.

Hello Omar Piani,

I was able to reproduce this exception. To fix it you need to patch the provided source code. Replace the following code in telerik.grid.filtering.js:

$.each(column.filters || [], function(i) {
                $filterMenu.find('.t-filter-operator:eq(' + i + ')')
                           .val(this.operator)
                           .end()
                           .find(':text:eq(' + i + '),select:not(.t-filter-operator):eq(' + i + ')')
                           .val(value(column, this.value))
                           .end()
                           .find(':radio[id$=' + this.value + ']')
                           .attr('checked', true);
            });

with this
$.each(column.filters || [], function(i) {
                $filterMenu.find('.t-filter-operator:eq(' + i + ')')
                           .val(this.operator)
                           .end()
                           .find(':text:eq(' + i + '),select:not(.t-filter-operator):eq(' + i + ')')
                           .val(value(column, this.value));
                
                if (column.type == 'Boolean')
                    $filterMenu.find(':radio[id$=' + this.value + ']')
                               .attr('checked', true);
            });

thanks!

We have the same issue and have been using the dll as opposed to a specific js file. How do we include the source code in our solution? We have looked through our download and cannot find this particular js file (telerik.grid.filtering.js).

Thanks in advance,

James Hollyhomes.

Hello James,

This problem has been fixed in the latest official release (2010.1.518). You can download it and try upgrading.

telerik.grid.filtering.js is included in the source code. It is located in the Scripts folder within Telerik.Web.Mvc.

Thanks very much for you quick response.

My apologies but we are actually using the AJAX asp.net controls not the MVC.  Do we need to post this question within the other forum ?  We have tried filtering on an apostrophe using the latest version in .NET 4 and this still does not work.

Thanks James Hollyhomes

Hi James,

Yes you should open a new forum thread in the Grid for ASP.NET Ajax forum (or open a support ticket) .
