It's not possible to lookup when there is an hyphen on path.

var object = { something: { anotherthing : { "other-thing" : "abc"} } };
JSPath.apply(".something.anotherthing.other-thing", object);

Uncaught Error: Unexpected token "-"

You need to quote such things:
JSPath.apply('.something.anotherthing."other-thing"', object);
or if you prefer double quotes for strings:
JSPath.apply(".something.anotherthing.\"other-thing\"", object);
