Referencing javascript files in asp.net webforms

Question

Apologies if this question is very trivial for most of you but i am a rookie trying to use HTML5 with asp.net web forms. Please don't ask why i am not using MVC4 or 5 as its a clients requirement. I don't understand why the page cannot find the referenced js files in my application.

My JS Scripts are in the following location: WebFormsTest->Scripts->WebForms Here is the code

@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="Login.aspx.cs"    Inherits="WebFormsTest.Login" %> 

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
  <head runat="server">
    <title>Login</title>
    <script  src="/Scripts/WebForms/jquery-1.10.2.js"></script> 
    <script  src="/Scripts/WebForms/jquery-ui-1.10.2.js"></script>
  </head>
  <body>
     <form id="form1" runat="server">
  </body>
</html>

When i run the following code i get the error message in firebug console saying the referencing scripts cannot be found. Eventhough the src is pointing to the right address why can't it find the files? Anybody got workaround for this?

Thank you

Try to use:

<script src="Scripts/WebForms/jquery-1.10.2.js"></script> 
<script src="Scripts/WebForms/jquery-ui-1.10.2.js"></script>

or:

<script src="~/Scripts/WebForms/jquery-1.10.2.js"></script> 
<script src="~/Scripts/WebForms/jquery-1.10.2.js"></script>

@NathanP. Razor doesn't work with web forms. i'll try with <% %>
