"dot" syntax on elments id's

"dot" syntax on elments id's

Hello,

 I have client on which I serve a third party service (javascript file).

In this service I want to use Jquery to reference specific html elements identified

by a unique id. What I have noticed is that this client identifies these elements

Using a “dot” syntax, something like : “<div  id=froum.tol2 …..”

now the next doesn’t work in jquery : “$(‘#froum.tol2’)……”

The “dot” in the literal id makes jquery go the wrong path…

Is there a syntax I can tackle this issue?

 

Thanks,

Yoni.
