#set($foo = "bar")
suggest.push("$foo")
suggest.push($foo)//Actually this also works.. if i do it like this $foo="bar"//instead of #set($foo = "bar")
but if $foo=(some value coming from database such as)//$foo=$value//then it does not work.
i donno why it was behaving like this

Looking at the generated javascript should reveal all. If in Velocity
you say
#set($foo = "bar")
suggest.push("$foo")
suggest.push($foo)
will render as:
suggest.push("bar")
suggest.push(bar)
When the javascript runs the second line is referencing a variable
'bar' which is not defined, and will cause a javascript error.
If you have the error console running in your browser, you should see
javascript errors to this effect.
