Visual Studio JavaScript intellisense feature is very cool. But if you are adding JavaScript files to Master Pages with ResolveUrl method, you can not use intellisense feature in design time. Also you can use intellisense feature with different way. There is a sample code below.

In Master Page :

First section is require for detect javascript file's url in runtime. Second section is require for intellisense support in design time. Second section can not display in rendered page. Of course you can use intellisense feature in which pages using this master page.

MasterPages came with ASP.NET 2.0 and it's very useful. If you are using master pages, JavaScript files, images, links and sub folders in own projects. This article is very useful for you.

For example you insert image in your master page and create an aspx file in subfolder.

In master page : <img src="Images/mustafaozcanblog.png" alt="Mustafa ÖZCAN's Blog" />

Sample.aspx file is in samples folder and it is use master page in root folder. Added images cannot be displayed in rendered sample.aspx page because images folder in root folder but samples.aspx page search it in samples directory.

So you have two ways solution for this problem:

1st Way: You must change this line for added image  : 

<img src="~/Images/mustafaozcanblog.png" alt="Mustafa ÖZCAN's Blog" runat="server"/>

2nd Way: You must change this line for added image :

 <img src='<%=ResolveUrl("~/Images/mustafaozcanblog.png")%>' alt="Mustafa ÖZCAN's Blog" />

You can use 2nd Way to added JavaScript files and other external content in master page file.
