[SOLVED] Jquery multiselect values not UTF-8

Jquery multiselect values not UTF-8

Im using Jquery multiselect for a project.The issue i am having is that special char is not rendered well when choosen. For instance in my picklist i have the value "Anadarko E&P", when i select this value, it is displayed as "Anadarko E&P". enter image description here

Do anybody know how to prevent this? Thanks in anticipation

Solution

I got it to work.Find the code below :

          $j(selector).multiselect({
        header: true,
        multiple: false,        
        selectedList: 1,
        classes: "jq_over",
        selectedText: function(numChecked, numTotal, checkedItems){
          for(var i = 0; i < checkedItems.length; i++){
            return $j(checkedItems[i]).siblings().text();
          }
       }
    }).multiselectfilter();

I had to modify the selectedText attibute to take the label and this works correctly
