The name 'Scripts' does not exists in the current context in MVC
In my mvc application, In the _Layout.cshtml has code below...
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>@ViewBag.Title - My ASP.NET Application</title>
@Styles.Render("~/Content/css")
@Scripts.Render("~/bundles/modernizr")
</head>
But the problem is it says The name 'Scripts' does not exists in the current context
.
I have already added the assembly to the reference and to the Bundle config as using System.Web.Optimization;
This happens for @styles also.. What should I do?
Solution 1:
Make sure your ~/Views/Web.Config
adds the System.Web.Optimization
namespace:
<system.web.webPages.razor>
<pages>
<namespaces>
<add namespace="System.Web.Optimization"/>
</namespaces>
</pages>
</system.web.webPages.razor>
Solution 2:
The following in .chtml solves the problem
@using System.Web.Optimization
@Scripts.Render("~/Content/css")
@Scripts.Render("~/bundles/modernizr")
