Cannot handle escape strings

[faizansaiyed]

In my Menu Json, I'm storing:

[
   {
      "id":2,
      "title":"sddsd",
      "customSelect":"search.html?SearchSensor=\"flags-of-the-world\"",
      "__domenu_params":{

      },
      "select2ScrollPosition":{
         "x":0,
         "y":0
      }
   },
   {
      "id":1,
      "title":"Home",
      "customSelect":"index.html",
      "__domenu_params":{

      },
      "select2ScrollPosition":{
         "x":0,
         "y":0
      }
   }
]

So when dynamically rendering this JSON into DoMenu, I'm getting this error:

jquery.min.js:2 Uncaught Error: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: option[value="search.html?SearchSensor="flags-of-the-world""]

Why don't you just use "customSelect":"search.html?SearchSensor=flags-of-the-world"? These extra quotation marks in the URL are unnecessary.

[faizansaiyed]

This double quotes are necessary for ReactiveSearch filters. Is it possible that DoMenu processes all escape characters?

Try to HTML-escape these symbols, use " instead of the quotation marks "search.html?SearchSensor="flags-of-the-world"",
