How can I get javascript parsing to work in Visual Studio 2013

Question

In Visual Studio 2013 Update 4 with the code shown in the below screenshot the brace matching is off. See the red arrows. Is there a way to make this work? I found it impossible to edit javascript in VS with this problem because this matching feeds the auto indent and the file would indent in all sorts of wrong ways.

Answer 1

I think it's due to the use of for( ..of ..) , which is an experimental feature, in a draft state, not supported by Internet Explorer, and therefore apparently not supported by VS either (note the wiggly line under to ).

If VS sees the for loop as a syntax error, that will probably also cause the parentheses mismatch.
