dynamically returning javascript function from controller and passing it to cshtml

Question

My Controller is...

public ActionResult CreateEmailStep5()
{
    MyViewModel mvm = new MyViewModel();
    mvm.myStringProperty = @"$(document).ready(function ($) {
        $('#Help').MyTour(
        {
          tourType: 'step',
          overlayOpacity: 0.5,
          .......
          .......
        });
    });"
    return View(mvm);
}

what am i trying with my .cshtml is like....

@model MyProj.ViewModels.MyViewModel
<script type="text/javascript">
    Model.myStringProperty;
</script>

I tried several things like Response.Write, HtmlDecode and HtmlEncode... what happening is... My Single Quote is being converted to its ascii " ' "

when i am trying...

Response.Write(@HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(Model.myStringProperty).ToString());

instead of

Model.myStringProperty;

in my .cshtml then its giving erro $ is not defined while i have added all required links

Why are you dynamically building the javascript in your view? Do you intend to pass some values to your javascript? — von v.

You want to convert your razor variable to html 'type'

Try using

@Html.Raw(Model.myStringProperty)
