I get all my viewbag related stuff from in a razor view like so ...

<script>
  var myJSVariable = @Viewbag.MyViewbagVariable;
</script>

You could do the following for the MVC view engine pre-razor I believe

<script>
  var myJSVariable = <%Viewbag.MyViewbagVariable%>;
</script>

When I tried the above method, it said "Conditional compilation turned off" and it wouldn't work. I tried looking up for solutions for that and I one of the solutions was Add /*@cc_on @*/ in your code. stackoverflow.com/a/6655726/620337> It comments out all the code after it irrespective of where I add it. Is there something I am overlooking?

If you are dealing with something simple like a string, you can save a viewbag in an data-* attribute of a HTML tag and use JavaScript to access that.
