With all of the goodies included with Service Pack 1 for Visual Studio 2008, the one thing that Microsoft did not do right is Javascript formatting. First of all, it’s really slow. Second of all, it doesn’t seem to be consistent with it’s indenting.
For me, I’d like to do my own formatting. So, to turn off the Javascript formatting in Visual Studio 2008 go to Tools – Options – Text Editor – JScript – Formatting. And uncheck all of the checkboxes in the Automatic Formatting group.
thanks, long time since I used Visual Studio for web development but this old post helped me from going nuts as well
Thank you,
I'm starting to have the same problem with Visual Studio 2010 when coding
MVC views. I haven't been able to find the switch in 2010 for MVC views
yet, I'll post it if I do.
