Nathan Bubna commented on VELOCITY-661:
---------------------------------------
Hmm. I don't think "#% " is going to be that much more common, but i've also
started thinking that the required space might be confusing if someone tries:
#%
block
%#
which is very likely, i think. The extra space also makes "#% " a challenge
for both writer and reader of documentation. So, i think we need to do either
#% or #%%, without the space. #%% is definitely less likely, but really, the
only situations i can think of for #% are "fake cussing" like #...@$! or maybe
some regex. In both of those already unusual cases, #%% seems much less
likely.
I do prefer the way that #% block %# looks, but even #%% block %%# looks a lot
better than the current workarounds. I think i'll adapt the patch to do the
latter one, as i'd rather not have any fake cussing lead to the real deal. ;-)
Also, the latter would be much more forward compatible if we later decide to
cut it back to #% block %# for aesthetic (or other) reasons.

> Project: Velocity
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Engine
> Affects Versions: 1.6.1
> Environment: ALL
> Reporter: ND
> Attachments: velocity-661-v1.0.patch
>
>
> I have some velocity templates that include quit some javascript. Inside the
> javascript a javascrip template engine is used which also uses ${varname}
> Escaping each occurance would make the code rather unreable, so to prevent
> velocity from parsing the javascript code, I put a #literal() around it.
> However, velocity still PARSES the contents of this block, which of course
> results in parsing exceptions.
> My feeling with "literal" is that it is completely UNINTERPRETED content?
> This SHOULD work:
> #literal()
> var myId = 'someID';
> $('#test).append($.template('<div id="${myId}"></div>').apply({myId: myId}));
> #end
