Jquery complaining syntax error - Json coming from a asp net mvc controller

Question

From this call

@using (Ajax.BeginForm("Manage", "Account", new AjaxOptions { HttpMethod = "POST", Confirm = "Você tem certeza que deseja salvar a alteração?", OnSuccess = "close" }))

the OnSuccess function is called and execute the following:

    function close(json) {
    $('"#' + json.param1 + '"').dialog("close");
    alert(json.Message);
}

and I get this error:

Error: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: "#UserSettings"

[Break On This Error]

throw new Error( "Syntax error, unrecognized expression: " + msg );

$('#UserSettings').dialog("close"); works fine so I don´t get why the error.

You do not need the extra double quotation marks in your jQuery selector. It should be:

$('#' + json.param1).dialog('close');

No problem. The reason it was complaining was because it thought you were looking for $('"#UserSettings"') which is an invalid selector.

try

$('#' + json.param1).dialog("close");

The double-quotes I think is where you are having an issue.
