I can append a token to my script references like this:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/Some.js?<%= Html.GetToken() %>"></script>

… and this works fine. But, if I try to append the same token the same way to a CSS file reference:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/Some.css?<%= Html.GetToken() %>" />

… the IIS generates the following markup:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/Some.css?&lt;%= Html.GetToken() %>" />

I know I’m missing something super simple but I cannot see what exactly. Thanks in advance for any help!

    This happens if your <head> section has runat="server". If you can live without it (in ASP.NET MVC you usually can) try it this way.

    If not, add or modify the CSS link in your view’s Page_Load. If that sounds awful to you, then removing runat="server" should be working 🙂
