I read ScottGu's blog entry (http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2008/11/21/jquery-intellisense-in-vs-2008.aspx) a while back, and it seems to imply more functionality than I'm seeing. I have VS2008 and its service pack installed, and I am using a new MVC project with the RC1 version of asp.net MVC. I referenced the jquery-1.2.6.js script, and I can see intellisense when I type "$." but anything after that shows nothing. This isn't particularly helpful for a jquery novice like me, so I'm hopeful that I've just forgotten something.
For example, when I try to use the specific script example in Scott's blog post:
(source: scottgu.com)
I don't get any intellisense action for the "attr" that he shows the tooltip for. Should I expect this intellisense help, and if so, what can I look for to address the problem?
Here's my script reference. It's declared in a master page, FWIW, and my attempted use of jquery is in my page that references this master page.
<head runat="server">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<link href="~/Content/styles/default.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="~/Content/scripts/jquery-1.2.6.js"></script>

Have you installed the jQuery-vsdoc.js file as well (in the same location as jquery-1.2.6.js)? This file contains the comments for intellisense. It's documented in step 3 of ScottGu's blog post.
Update:
And you also installed the Visual Studio patch?
For me it works (as shown in ScottGu's blog), although I'm using a website project, not MVC. I added the script reference in the master page:
<script src="jquery-1.3.1.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
I get intellisense in both the master page and in content pages (tried it with the code you put in your question).
