As I mentioned in my reply sometime ago, I already got it fixed. Here it is -
document.ManageSiteLinksForm.preVTL.value="\#if(\$SITE.getSiteDocs().size() >
0)";
Both, # and $ needed to be escaped here!

Subject: Re: Escaping VTL in a string
ooops - then I try again...
#set($value = '#if($SITE.getSiteDocs().size()>0)')
document.ManageSiteLinksForm.preVTL.value="$value";
Am I right this time?

Hi Claude,
You maybe make a little mistake, I guess.
document.ManageSiteLinksForm.preVTL.value means Javascript context.
And the left-hand side of #set shoud start with "$", shouldn't it ?
But the statement below will not be what Manish wants.
document.ManageSiteLinksForm.preVTL.value='#if($SITE.getSiteDocs().size
()>0)'
It will fail because of ParserErrorException ;-)
Best Regards,
