I am trying to use MVC4's new "bundling and minification".
For IE conditional comments, I'm still doing it the old way: <!--[if lt IE 9]><link href=.../><![endif]-->
or <!--[if lt IE 9]>@Styles.Render("~/foo")<![endif]-->
but I don't seem to get the automatic debug/release handling.
Is there a built-in way to do this? How are others doing this?
EDIT:
Also it would be great to be able to include <noscript>
tags inside the rendered output (used for fallbacks).
Until I find a better way, I made an adaptor class called Bundles
, which has the method:
public static IHtmlString RenderStylesIe(string ie, params string[] paths) {
var tag = string.Format("<!--[if {0}]>{1}<![endif]-->", ie, Styles.Render(paths));
return new MvcHtmlString(tag);
}
There is a similar method for scripts. A view calls them as such:
@Bundles.RenderStylesIe("lt IE 9", "~/Content/foo")
@Bundles.RenderScriptsIe("lte IE 7", "~/Scripts/bar")
If there is a better way, I'd appreciate the advice.
