Asp.net AJAX service proxy intellisense in external js

If you have service reference (e.g. to an AJAX Enabled WCF Service) in your ScriptManager (or ToolkitScriptManager):

<asp:ToolkitScriptManager ID="ToolkitScriptManager1" runat="server">
    <Services>
        <asp:ServiceReference Path="~/MotoService.svc" />
    </Services>
</asp:ToolkitScriptManager>

and your are using an external JavaScript file you can enable JavaScript intellisense by adding the following 2 lines to the top of your .js (replacing ~/MotoService.svc with the path to your own service):

/// <reference name="MicrosoftAjax.js" />
/// <reference path="~/MotoService.svc" />

JavaScript Breakpoints Not Working In Visual Studio 2008

This can happen, sometimes fixed by re-installing VS or installing VS 2008 SP1. In this case it seems Javascript breakpoints do not seem to work in Visual Studio 2008 when Silverlight debugging is enabled, if you un-check the Silverlight option in the debuggers section, the JavaScript breakpoint will now be hit. Not sure if it's by design or a bug...
