Is there a way to get Visual Studio 2008 to do matching brace highlighting for Javascript?
If there is no way to do it in Studio, can it be done using ReSharper?
Thanks!!

To specify the color to highlight matching delimiters, go to Visual Studio options (Tools | Options), open the Environment | Fonts and Colors page, and select the desired colors for the ReSharper Brace Outline and/or ReSharper Matched Brace items.
To change item foreground and background colors in Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate fallow this: Tools->Options->Environment->General->Fonts and Colors. This worked for me to change Brace Matching(Rectangle) from default color which was barley visible, to my own chosen color.
Bracket-matching provides visual cues illustrating the location of matched pair elements. With bracket-matching enabled, positioning the cursor on one paired element highlights the matching element in the code sequence.
Note that Visual Studio will still find a matching brace in JavaScript via Ctrl + ].
