Regions/code collapse in Javascript in Visual Studio 2010

Is it possible to create code regions in JS files in Visual Studio 2010?

This method works in 2005, but I can't get working in 2010.

In VS 2015 you can just create a block around your "region" like this

{ //My little region
  function misc()...
  var x = '';
  //etc...
  ...
}

Then just collapse that block. Probably on all older versions of Visual Studio as well.

Even though VS extensions installed, I had a unique problem of some of the script blocks not outlining properly, later found that its because of the @Url.Content tag used in the script, simply replaced it with simple string url, the outlining worked....thought of sharing if it helps someone

Another great Visual Studio 2012-Extension is Web Essentials 2012. There are a bunch of cool tools for even TypeScript, LESS and CoffeeScript.

The JSEnhancements plugin for Visual Studio addresses this nicely.

There's an interesting post here : http://blog.devarchive.net/2008/04/using-region-directive-with-javascript.html on how to do this using Macros in Visual Studio.

Hope that help.

Update I just realised that someone has already referenced this link in the comments.
