Missing ) inside jQuery

[toplisek]

I have set CSS selector to be read by all browser like:
selector = {
init: function() {
jQuery(".myboxes [class*="mycolumns-"] :nth-child(3n+3)").css("margin-right", 0);
}
}
There is an error inside validation like
Error: SyntaxError: missing ) after argument list

How to avoid/fix this error?

You have double quotes within your double quoted string. Try this:
jQuery('.myboxes [class*="mycolumns-"] :nth-child(3n+3)').css("margin-right", 0);

I have tested in the mean time you posted and done as you quoted. It is interesting that [class*="mycolumns-"] is not detected but it works just .myboxes :...

It seems that > sign works for all elements inside (directly) .myboxes but [class*="mycolumns-"] can not detect class inside jQuery due to class added to all elements. As it is secondary level...

I'm not sure I understand what you're saying, but the following works for me:

<div class="myboxes">
 <div class="a">
  <div class="mycolumns-x">
   <div>X</div>
   <div>Y</div>
   <div>Z</div>
  </div>
 </div>
</div>

// Makes the Z red
$('.myboxes [class*="mycolumns-"] :nth-child(3n+3)').css("color", "red");

Strange. I'm not sure either.
