I prepend something known and meaningless, like row_ to the numerical
ID. Then I strip that off with slice or split('_').last() when I need
to use it later. Frameworks like Scriptaculous Sortable do that for
you as well, when you serialize a sortable table, you are required to
have the IDs set like that, with a prefix, underscore, and number.

I do recall that now. Thank you. It just fits so perfectly to use
the ID of the sql table row as the ID of the matching HTML table
row :) What is your preferred method when populating a table with
results from a query?
Thank you,

Hi,
Don't start `id` values with digits, it's not valid in CSS[1] (and
therefore not in CSS selectors, such as those used by `select` or `$
$`).
This is true of HTML4 as well[2], but HTML5 opens this up[3] such
that
an ID can be just about anything that doesn't have a space in it.

Hi all,
Having an odd element.select issue. I am using .select("input")
on
a table row. If the ID of the row starts with a number ("01CA5BE1-
BA6C-45AB-B46B-C3F25ACF003A" is id value), .select(input) returns
error below.
[Exception... "An invalid or illegal string was specified" code:
"12"
nsresult: "0x8053000c (NS_ERROR_DOM_SYNTAX_ERR)" location: "http://
localhost/a1_local/v3/js/prototype.js Line: 3301"]
Any suggestions?
Best regards,
Joschi
