jquery version compatibilty issue unrecognized expression

I am using jquery-1.7.1 and I need to upgrade upon my client's request to jquery-1.12.0.



I get the following error when I do so :




Syntax error, unrecognized expression: #dragAndDropFiles input[name=Sans titre][type=text]




So that means that the downgraded jquery version doesn't understand this :



$("#dragAndDropFiles input[name=No Title][type=text]").val()


Can someone help me to understand why is this expression an issue?

          If you have a whitespace in the attribute value you need to use it like name='No Title':






          $(function() {
          console.log($("#dragAndDropFiles input[name='No Title'][type=text]").val());
          });

          <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.0.min.js"></script>
          <div id="dragAndDropFiles">
          <input name="No Title" type="text" value="myval" />
          </div>
