Question

When working in VS2008 in a large aspx file the program grinds to halt updating JScript intellisense.

Is their a way to turn this off?

It’s not listed in Tools>Options>Text Editor. Already have the AllLanguages.AutoListMembers and AllLanguages.ParameterInformation turned off.

EDIT:
VS2008 did not have sp1 installed. As to why it doesn’t have SP1 I don’t know. Not listed in my Microsoft Updates. Forcing a manual install right now. AARRGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!1!

EDIT 2:
An hour and a half later and the SP1 is installed and updated. BTW these are the macros i use to turn off and on the intellisense:

Sub Intellisense_Off()
    Dim textEditor As Properties
    textEditor = DTE.Properties("TextEditor", "AllLanguages")
    textEditor.Item("AutoListMembers").Value = False
    textEditor.Item("AutoListParams").Value = False
End Sub

Sub Intellisense_On()
    Dim textEditor As Properties
    textEditor = DTE.Properties("TextEditor", "AllLanguages")
    textEditor.Item("AutoListMembers").Value = True
    textEditor.Item("AutoListParams").Value = True
End Sub

Answer 1

Tools>Options>TextEditor>JScript

You can turn it off there.
