If searchTerm="foo", it will generate bar(foo) and that which is
invalid. You need to generate bar("foo").
Simple solution is to use bar("$searchTerm") if searchTerm is never
going to have quote characters in it.
Correct solution is to json ecode the string.
bar($:json_encode(searchTerm))
You need to add json_encode to template globals.
import simplejson
render = web.template.render("templates", globals={
"json_encode": simplejson.dumps
})
