@Former user
Do you want me to submit a patch for that?
Yes please.

@Former user not sure if you submitted a fix for this yet, but it should be changing line 56 to:
var id = '#locale-alias-form-' + localeId.replace('@', '\\@');If our jQuery version is 3+, we can use jQuery.escapeSelector()
There are also several other lines using localeId to make a jQuery selector, so those would need updating too. Probably need an escape(localeId) function to keep it consistent and easy to deal with other escapes if needed.

Verified this is a UX bug in Zanata page. Issue is with jquery does not work well for special char in query and need to escape the char.
Files:
settings-tab-languages.js
method to escape: jqSelector in components-script.js

@Former user I know you worked on this part of the code, perhaps you are the best person to diagnose the problem.

When I try to add an alias for the sr@latin the page simply scrolls to the top and no text entry field to input the alias is displayed. This same problem occurs for other locales/languages that contain a '@' character.
