Is it possible to select an element from a page with an id that begins with a number?
$('#3|assets_main|ast_module|start-iso-date')
Upon attempting to do so, the following error occurs:
Uncaught Error: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: |assets_main|ast_module|start-iso-date
I am currently using jQuery 1.7.1 and I realize that naming ids starting with numbers is not recommended, but is there a specific reason why jQuery may have trouble handling such ids?
