How can I disable javascript compile warnings in VS 2010?

Question

Visual studio seems intent that my javascript code is bad, mostly because it has no knowledge of jquery or some plugins I am using. Therefore, every time I compile my product it gives me a lot of warnings, most of them are incorrect ($ is not defined, window is not defined, etc...).

I have /// <reference path="" /> tags setup in my javascript with intellisense working properly so I know these are just not real issues.

How can I disable these warnings?

edit to be clear, I need these disabled because it's causing 100+ warnings that are making me lose sight of REAL c# warnings.

Answer 1

I had the exact same issue you were having: 100s of incorrect errors every save. For me the issue was with Chirpy, which was a prerequisite for another extension. For whatever reason on my end, Chirpy was not in my Extension Manager so it took me a while to find.

Check and see if you have it installed. If so disable JSHint.

1. Tool -> Options
2. Chirpy -> JSHint
3. Uncheck: Run JS Hint

Answer 2

try this and let me know if it works.

Enter the options through Tools > Options.

In the tree to the left, choose Text Editor > JScript > Miscellaneous. Uncheck "Show syntax errors".
