I have been working a LOT with JavaScript lately - using ASP.NET AJAX. I had no problem getting intellisense to work in my .js files...all of the JavaScript API comes up like magic. But, if I have 2 .js files - and one references functions in the other - I could never figure out how to get that to work.

And now I have found how to do it.

You need to add a /// comment to the top of the external javascript library. This instructs Visual Studio to extend intellisense into that referenced javascript file.

I presented at the Western Mass .NET Users Group a couple weeks ago. The topic was ASP.NET AJAX - we had about 20 attendees and the presentation went very well. I am posting the presentation files on the downloads page.

Thanks to all who attended! See you next month!

Apparently I am getting old. I have been designing software for 14 years now, and spend nearly every minute of my work day on the Internet. How is it that I totally missed FaceBook all this time? I mean - I had heard of it - but I must be lacking in the social department because it had never occurred to me that I should be on FaceBook.

But now I'm on it, and it's cool. I have connected with people that I haven't seen in 20 years, and that is just priceless.
