Jquery : .replace part of string returns "Unexpected token ILLEGAL" -


i have googled, , browsed around really, weird known error while now, cannot figure out what's wrong code, , why gives me error "unexpected token illegal".

the line fails 1 : 

var temp = existingtags.replace(tagtoremove, '');​

code : 

ondelete: function (item) {     var existingtags = $('.lbltags').html();      var tagtoremove = item.name + ',';      var temp = existingtags.replace(tagtoremove, '');​      $('.lbltags').text(temp); }

data :

existingtags = "oddity,strange,weird,ohyeah,"    tagtoremove = "weird,"

you have invisible ("zero-width space") character @ end of line, making line invalid. note if put cursor after semicolon , hit right left, cursor doesn't appear move @ all.

this can happen when copy code around, particularly websites.

you can delete offending character, or if copy , paste code below looks identical has been cleaned up, rid of error.

ondelete: function (item) {     var existingtags = $('.lbltags').html();     var tagtoremove = item.name + ',';     var temp = existingtags.replace(tagtoremove, ''); // zero-width space removed here     $('.lbltags').text(temp); }

as per andreas's comment, jsfiddle display offending character in red if paste code, shown here.

css - Make div keyboard-scrollable in jQuery Mobile? -

from can tell, although jquery-mobile-powered pages can contain divs overflow set scroll or auto, , these divs can scrolled one-screen bar or mouse wheel, cannot scrolled using arrow keys, page-up/page-down, or home/end. instead, official "page" div (with data-role="page") absorbs input. perhaps other divs can't acquire focus, i'm not sure. is there way around this? edit: jsfiddle of simple example: https://jsfiddle.net/qogz0shx/ <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquerymobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile.min.js"> </script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile-1.4.5.css"/> <style> #outer { overflow:scroll; height: 50vh; width: 50vw; } #inner { height: 500vh; width: 500vw; } &l
