intellisense with jquery in visual studio 2010

Question

I put those two above. But I get no intellisense with jquery.

<script src="@Url.Content("~/Scripts/jquery-ui-1.8.11.js")" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="../../Scripts/jquery-1.5.1-vsdoc.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

I also want to achieve intellisense in a javascript file, is it possible?

UPDATE:

jQuery(function ($) {
    $("").   //no click event handler comes up
});

Simple google search came up with this:

VS2010 Tips #7: How to make jQuery Intellisense work for external JavaScript file

Short answer:

/// <reference path="../../scripts/jquery-1.5.1-vsdoc.js"/>

Note that you can't use the @ sign inside js file like in a Asp.net-MVC View

Read this to learn how you can overcome this.

when i choose an elemenet $(""). no click handler comes up ..why? – BlackFire27 Mar 05 '12 at 09:56
@BlackFire27. Did you add `/// ` to the file??? – gdoron Mar 05 '12 at 10:00
yeah. there is intellsense outside the jQuery(function($)..but not inside it.. it is very weird – BlackFire27 Mar 05 '12 at 10:04
@BlackFire27. You wrote the code wrong. It should be `jQuery($){$("").click(...)}`. Anyway I'm not sure you will get _intellsense_ inside that function because `$` in that function is a parameter! – gdoron Mar 05 '12 at 10:17

Right click the project >> Click on 'Add Library Package Reference' >> On the left frame select 'Online' >> On the right most corner frame, enter 'jquery' in the 'Search Online' textbox >> After results come, click and Install the 'jQuery.vsdoc' package.

Simple!

Hmmm, didn't even find the first option ("Add Library"). Are you sure this is for VS2010 (like the OP) or that there aren't any other requirements? – Charles Roberto Canato Jun 14 '14 at 12:41
@CharlesRobertoCanato - Looks like you don't have Nuget installed on your VS2010 installation. please install it from below link and then try. Good Luck! http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/27077b70-9dad-4c64-adcf-c7cf6bc9970c – Deepak Pathak Jun 17 '14 at 07:22
in fact I do, but the string is different than yours. Anyway I replied too early, didn't even notice you were talking about adding a package. Anyway I already tried that (manually, because I use an earlier version), still not working. Will investigate more in another time, thanks. – Charles Roberto Canato Jun 24 '14 at 12:57
