Duplicate: VS2008 Removes my Indentation in .js file (Turn off auto formatting in the formatting tab)

Hi I have VS2008 and ReSharper 4.0 and I’m having a problem. When I enter a new line of code in any .js file, it goes thru and reformats all of the JavaScript braces. I’ve found where in ReSharper where I can set brace behavior for C# (.cs) files. I’ve searched in VS2008 and couldn’t find any settings for JavaScript code.

    function doSomething(withMe)      {         for (idx in myArray)          {             if (myArray[idx] != -1)              {                 return 'yep';             }         }         return 'nope';     } 

Become this (which I like better, but my team likes the above instead)

    function doSomething(withMe) {         for (idx in myArray) {             if (myArray[idx] != -1) {                 return 'yep';             }         }         return 'nope';           } 

It’s getting painful to go back and re-add the CRs everywhere. Where can I find the setting to make this madness stop.
