I suppose there are people who encountered underscore problem, so I found something here:Using Underscore.js with ASP.NETand the solution was to add:\[code\]_.templateSettings = {interpolate : /\{\{(.+?)\}\}/g, // print value: {{ value_name }} evaluate : /\{%([\s\S]+?)%\}/g, // excute code: {% code_to_execute %} escape : /\{%-([\s\S]+?)%\}/g}; // excape HTML: {%- <script> %} prints <script>\[/code\]to underscore.jsso I opened underscore.js and found the _.templateSettings section, and replaced with the above solution, still with no luck.Is there anywhere that I'm missing? here's my code looks like:\[code\]<table class="table"> <thead> <tr> <th></th> <th>#</th> <th>Keyword</th> <th>Corresponding Field</th> <th><a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12796997/#" class="btn pull-right" id="one-to-one-add">Add</a></th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <% _.each(keywords, function(keyword, key, list) { %> <tr> <td><label class="checkbox"><input type="checkbox" /></label></td> <td><%= key + 1 %></td> <td><input name="keywords[<%= key %>][keyword]" class="input-medium keyword-name" type="text" value="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12796997/<%= keyword.name %>" /></td> <td> <select class="keyword-field"> <% _.each(fields, function(field, key, list) { %> <option name="keywords[<%= key %>][field]" value="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12796997/<%= field.id %>" <% if (keyword.fieldId == field.id) { %>selected<% } %>><%= field.name %></option> <% }); %> </select> </td> <td class="align-right"><a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12796997/#defining-keyword" data-toggle="modal">Define</a></td> </tr> <% }); %> </tbody></table>\[/code\]
