<head runat=”server”> doesn’t go through normal asp.net processing. So when you use something like
<link href=’<%= Url.Content(“~\Content\Site.css”) %>’ rel=’stylesheet’ type=’text/css’ />
You’ll end up with something like
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../Views/Shared/%3C%25=%20Url.Content(%22~/Content/Site.css%22)%25%3E" />
which clearly isn’t what we wanted. The reason for this is the <link /> elements have special processing in Asp so the <% %> code nuggets don’t work. Thankfully it’s a quick fix:
Take advantage of the special processing and simply set the source to href=’~/Content/Site.css’. The processing engine will resolve the url correctly.
<link href=’~/Content/Site.css’ rel=’stylesheet’ type=’text/css’ />
That will resolve to what we expect.
