Single Quotes in value

[joeykamsteeg]

Single quotes using in a value of a option will breaks the javascript execution. When using a single quote inside a option you can't open de select box anymore.

Error:

Uncaught Error: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: li[data-val='kilo's'] jquery.js:1453

jQuery version: 2.1.3

+1, this should be fixed, but can use ' in place of single quotes for values for the time being

Fixed this by changing line 1525 to this:

var currentElem = self.list.find("li[data-val=\"" + self.dropdownText.attr("data-val") + "\"]"),

Awesome, thanks @lachlantweedie -- necroposting, I know, but your fix worked for me -- #384 seems to include this fix too.
