Produce a "type" attribute in the "script" tag when using Scripts.Render in ASP.NET MVC 4

asp.net, asp.net-mvc, asp.net-optimization, bundling-and-minification

Solution

The 1.1-alpha1 update has support doing your own tag formatting with the Scripts/Styles helpers.

There's a new DefaultTagFormat property which is by default set to:

"<script src="{0}"></script>"

There's also a RenderFormat method which takes in the tag format as well. You should be able to add the type attribute via either of these two mechanicsms.
