Here is something nice I have found while wandering around the Internet. We all know jQuery, jQuery is a Framework written in JavaScript which makes client side and DOM work much easier and faster. If you don’t know it yet, be sure to check it out, it makes Web Developers life easy on the web. Shahar wrote a great article about Calling ASP.NET WebMethod with jQuery so check it out.
Anyhow what I found was a Visual Studio Add-in that provides Intellisense for jQuery! How sweet it this!
all you have to do is the following:
-
Download the jQuery Intellisense JS File
-
Reference it under the Head Tag in your HTML file like this:
1: <script src="jquery-1.2.3-intellisense.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
2: <script src="your.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
-
In you js file tell Visual Studio to use the Intellisense file:
/// <reference path="jquery-1.2.3-intellisense.js" />
That’s that! You now have intellisense for jQuery which will make your life so much easier.

Nice tip, just that jQuery is 1.2.6 now, not 1.2.3.

Just to correct..this is not a Visual Studio add-in, this is just a javascript file that follows the patterns to give a js file intellisense for Visual Studio 2008.

G’Day Amit - I’m pretty sure your method will also make the end user of your web site download the intellisense file (unless you remove the reference in production).
An alternative which enables intellisense for development but does not reference the file for normal users is to put the script reference in an asp:PlaceHolder (VS2008 only) like:
