How to escape '$' and '#' in Facelets/EL?

Question

I\'m using Java Facelets and jQuery, however the expression

$(\'...\')

in jQuery conflicts with EL expression, how do I escape the jQuery\'

Answer 1

This should normally not conflict. EL uses ${} syntax. Anyway, you could either use jQuery() instead (the $() is just a shorthand) or simply put JS code in its own .js file.
