Description

Hi,

When I use .html (String) method where string has some java script. After apply .html its fails and give error as

Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token < jquery-1.10.2.js:612 <https://localhost:7004/XYZ/JS/jquery-1.10.2.js>(anonymous function)jquery-1.10.2.js:612

The same piece of code is working fine in jQuery 1.9.1.

I debug the issue and got a point that the text which is appended by the .html method has some java script inside it and also has the < sign in a for loop.

Please suggest the appropriate way of solving this issue.

Hi,

Sorry for the late reply.

I got solution of my issue. The problem is in the string which we are going to set by .html() method.

In that screen there is a script tag which is pointing to some external JS file and that file is not exist at that location. It is causing the error as

Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token < jquery-1.10.2.js:612

By removing that script tag issue is resolved.

Might be this is an enhancement in jQuery 1.10.2 because same piece of code is working fine in jQuery 1.9.2.

Anyways thanks for the response :)
