    <p>I have some pages on my site that use certain CSS and JS resources - but they are the only page(s) to use that css or js file - so I don't want to include that CSS and JS reference in every page. Rather than modify each View to reference the CSS/JS it needs, I thought I could create a bundle in the Controller and add it to the Bundles that are already registered, and then it would be included in the bundle references, but this does not appear to be possible, or maybe I'm just going about it the wrong way.</p> <p>In my Controller for a registration page for example, I thought I could write this:</p> <pre><code>Bundle styleBundle = new Bundle("~/bundles/registrationStyleBundle"); styleBundle.Include("~/Content/Themes/Default/registration.css"); BundleTable.Bundles.Add(styleBundle); </code></pre> <p>And then have this in my /Views/Shared/_Layout.cshtml:</p> <pre><code>@foreach(Bundle b in BundleTable.Bundles) { if (b is StyleBundle) { &lt;link href="@BundleTable.Bundles.ResolveBundleUrl(b.Path)" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /&gt; } else if (b is ScriptBundle) { &lt;script src="@BundleTable.Bundles.ResolveBundleUrl(b.Path)" type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; } } </code></pre> <p>But this does not work - the only bundles to get rendered to my page end up being the ones I specified in <code>RegisterBundles</code> (in /App_Start/BundleConfig.cs)</p> <p>Any idea how to achieve this kind of "dynamic" or "runtime" bundling?</p> <p><strong>EDIT</strong>: Following Jasen's advice, what I ended up doing was taking the bundle creation/registration code out of the controller and adding it to RegisterBundles() in /App_Start/BundleConfig.cs. This way, the bundle is already available and the contents get minified. So:</p> <pre><code>bundles.Add( new StyleBundle("~/bundles/registrationStyleBundle") .Include("~/Content/Themes/default/registration.css")); </code></pre> <p>Then, in my view, I added this:</p> <pre><code>@section viewStyles{ &lt;link href="@BundleTable.Bundles.ResolveBundleUrl("~/bundles/registrationStyleBundle")." rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /&gt; } </code></pre> <p>Then, in /Views/Shared/_Layout.cshtml, I added this:</p> <pre><code>@RenderSection("viewStyles", required: false) </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
