MVC .Net 4 Razor Problems using <text> tag

Question

Here is my code:

<text>
    <script type="text/javascript">    
    @foreach (var script in Model.Content.StartupScripts)
    {
        @script
    }    
    </script>
</text>

@script contains a javascript script, but this gets rendered by razor as:

  <script type="text/javascript">    
    {
            {
                var instanceId = &#39;blah&#39;;
                new RequestQueue(&#39; blah
       // etc

So...it looks like the tag is not applying to the @script variable because single quotes are being replaced with '. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

you need to insert the raw text, MVC is trying to protect you from inserting rogue text that is trying to be script / html — Keith Nicholas

Since MVC is automatically encoding all output, you need to force it to display raw text. You can do that with @Html.Raw(script) HTML helper.
