Make ASP.NET bundling specify media=screen for CSS bundle

Question

I\'m just trying out ASP.NET 4.5 bundling and minification, and ran into an issue.

I\'ve got around 10 css files, of which 2 were originally referenced in the layout

Answer 1

Well, it's an ugly hack, but hopefully the team will add a built-in way to do it in the next release.

This is how I solved it, maintaining the caching string and still being able to add the media attribute to the tag.

@{
    var cssMediaBundleUrl = BundleTable.Bundles.ResolveBundleUrl("~/stylesheets/mediacss", true);
}

Guess I can turn this into an Html helper, will do that later and edit.
