We wrote a custom taglib function called escapeJS to handle this from our JSPs
and to keep JSP-specific code from polluting our model classes.
var companyName = '${vt:escapeJS(actionBean.company.name)}';
It just wraps a call to StringEscapeUtils.escapeEcmaScript().

Subject: [Stripes-users] stripes tag for escaped string literal in JavaScript
I've run into an interesting situation with un-escaped double quotes in
JavaScript in a JSP.
I have some JavaScript code like this...
var companyName = "${actionBean.company.name}";
...which breaks if the company name contains double quotes.
The same situation can happen if the company name contains a single quote and
the javascript code quotes using single quotes...
var companyName = '${actionBean.company.name}';
The only workaround I've been able to come up with involves adding new methods
to the company object that I can call to get a JavaScript escaped version of
the string using Apache commons StringEscapeUtils.escapeJavaScript().
