Referencing script files from MVC

Question

I am having problems referencing scripts that should be included in my view, when I access the page using a different route my scripts fail.

The idea is that two routes actually point to the same action:

http://localhost/PaydayWebsite/registration

http://localhost/PaydayWebsite/organizations/p001/departments/vest/employees/chn/registration

where the second just include more params for my action. I have tried using

ResolveUrl, Url.Content and mvccontribs Html.ScriptInclude but neither seem to work. Any ideas?

You should be able to use Url.Content, but you'll need to make your path relative to the root of the application rather than the current path.

Use

 Url.Content( "~/Content/Scripts/jquery-1.3.2.min.js" )

rather than

 Url.Content( "../../Content/Scripts/jquery-1.3.2.min.js" )
