Description
Hello,
When I use the following code I get an undefined position()... when I remove the decimal it works...
<div id="id-343434.34">My id with decimal</div>
<a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="alert($('#id-343434.34').position()">Find Position</a>
Now removing the decimal:
<div id="id-343434">My id withoutdecimal</div>
<a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="alert($('#id-343434').position()">Find Position</a>
Racked my brain for 5 hours...

You right, sorry... I did search for it in the docs before posting the bug I just didn't find it nor did read all the Faqs... my bad.
You need to escape the characters:
