Asp.net mvc3 intellisense not starting for css classes
In Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate, MVC3, Razor Engine, _Layout.cshtml. If I link to CSS like this:
<link href="@Url.Content("/Content/Site.css")" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
than intellisense doesn't work for css classes! Example:
<div class="<---- IntelliSense don't fire
But if I reference the CSS like this:
<link href="/content/Site.css" rel="Stylesheet" type="text/css" />
than IntelliSense work.
Any help?

Well, the "why" is simple: Visual Studio doesn't call Url.Content when it encounters CSS files. VS executes javascript when evaluating JS expressions, but not for file detection.
You might be wondering how to make it work ...
Well, it doesn't seem to be doing very well at the moment. However, in my blog, I describe one of the options (in the middle of JavaScript):

This method should work for CSS as well.
