Angular js - Error: $parse:lexerr Lexer Error

Issue

I'm developing a project in angular 1.2, I have a problem with utf-8 encoding and the angular binding, some chars like "ñ" throw an error:

HTML

<select class="form-control " ng-model="IdDesempeño">

Angular error

Lexer Error: Unexpected next character

I've got a plunker demo

Do you have any idea what's going on?

Solution

You could wider the range of characters allowed in AngularJs identifiers to match your requirements. This is done by modifying the isIdent function in angular.js file, around line 9730. I did this to allow French special characters and some more.

isIdent: function(ch) {
    return ('a' <= ch && ch <= 'z' ||
            'A' <= ch && ch <= 'Z' ||
            '_' === ch || ch === '$') || 
            129 <= ch.charCodeAt(0) && ch.charCodeAt(0) <= 496; // added this line

There is an old pull request on Github for this (https://github.com/angular/angular.js/pull/4747).
