Inline javascript removes javascript code up to 1st ;

The inline javascript removes javascript code up to 1st ;

Example;

messages.push( /*[[#{  OGNL EXPR }]]*/ );

Will output:

messages.push( 'AN STR' ;

Note that Thymeleaf removed ) that result in a not valid javascript expression.

Hi,

This is in fact a feature, documented at the JavaScript Inlining section in the tutorials.

The aim of it is to provide a way to create JavaScript code that can be executed both statically (without executing Thymeleaf) and dynamically (after processing a template with Thymeleaf). That way:

var expr = /*[[#{ OGNL EXPR }]]*/  'This is my static expression!';
messages.push(expr);

The above code is perfectly correct JavaScript that can be executed statically. And when the template is processed, you will get:

var expr = 'AN STR';
messages.push(expr);

Nevertheless, I'm open to suggestions for new/better ways to do this (always maintaining backwards compatibility) for Thymeleaf 2.1.

Regards,
Daniel.
