I can't get intellisense to work for these files no matter how I include it (script reference or script inclusion). In truth, I haven't been able to get js intellisense to work for my own javascript at all unless it's in a script block directly in the file. I'm using vs2008 sp1 targeting the 2.0 framework.

Some instructions on how to get it working would be nice. ;-)

Previous info is scattered around with varying techniques that never seemed to work.....

That's a great news.

@John: precisely. That's why I've been insisting in the post that this should never be used at runtime. We are going to enforce that in the future by allowing you to only reference the runtime and the IDE should be able to find the IntelliSense file automatically.

Can't wait to try that one, could never get it to work flawlessly with the previous 'hacks' :)

Script block can use the minified compressed version to save bandwidth, so you just want to use the vsdoc as a reference for intellisense... The comments take up to much space to be used in production.

@Dave: good point, Dave, but references I believe currently only work in JS files, not in pages. But from JS files, that is clearly the best strategy for now. Eventually, you'll be able to just reference the main jquery file.

Awesome!

Is there any difference between including it in a script block and including it as a reference like this?

/// <reference path="~/jquery-1.2.6-vsdoc.js"/>
