Kendo validator js syntax error using checkbox within template editor

[Ryan]

I'm using MVC4 with KendoUI 2012.3.1114
I have a model like this...

class Contact {

    Phone WorkPhone {get;set;}

    Phone HomePhone {get;set;}

}

 

class Phone {

    string PhoneNumber {get;set;}

    bool IsPrimary {get;set;}

}

The contact view is using an editor template to display the phones:

@Html.EditorFor(m=>m.WorkPhone)

@Html.EditorFor(m=>m.HomePhone)

and in the Phone editor template, I have a checkbox...

@Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.PhoneNumber)

@Html.CheckBoxFor(m => m.IsPrimary)

everything works fine... until I add a kendo validator...

$("#formId).kendoValidator().data("kendoValidator");

Now when I check/uncheck the checkbox and click away (to trigger blur), I get a js error:

Webpage error details

Message: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: input:hidden[name=WorkPhone.IsPrimary]
Line: 2
Char: 59140
Code: 0
URI: .../Scripts/kendo/2012.3.1114/jquery.min.js

Is there fix for this?

Hi Ryan, 

We were able to identify the cause for such error and to address it. The fix will be available with the Q1 2013 KendoUI release (scheduled for the second half of the March). Meanwhile, I have updated your telerik points.

All the best,
Rosen

I have exact the same problem with Kendo 2013.1.514. Was it really fixed in this release?

Hello Martin,

I cannot recreate the behavior in question locally. Could you please provide a small sample in which it can be observed.
