Hi,

In de jQueryViewComponentBase class the jQuery stylesheet is added to the list StyleSheetNames. The render method of the StyleSheetRegistrar will use this list among others, to render alle the LINK tags in the HTML. The problem is this will only work when the stylesheet links are rendered _after_ the components are processed. While it is possible to render the component level stylesheets at the bottom of the page, it is impossible to render them in the HEAD section!

The example is solving this problem by declaring the jQuery stylesheet in the masterpage. Is there a way to get this auto registration mechanisme for components working and render the LINKs into the HEAD section?

Thanks,

Niels

Found a solution in a post from Hugo Bonacci (http://somewebguy.wordpress.com/2009/07/28/include-stylesheets-and-scripts-from-a-webcontrol-in-mvc/). I made some additional code in the StyleSheetRegistrar and its builder for inserting a marker where the stylesheets must be rendered. The new StyleSheetLocationMarkerFilter class handles the insertion by delaying writing to the request output stream as described in Hugo's post. As MVC views normally aren't that large (?) the delay will not bring your response times down to an unacceptable level.

I'm happy to donate it to the project. Kazi can I mail it to somebody at Telerik to have a look at it and possibly add it to the project?
