I am getting some strange characters in my View when using Experience Editor.
This is the main layout;

This is a partial MVC Controller Rendering in the placeholder head-content, which works great in Preview mode but when I try to work with it in Experience Editor, I have two problems:
I have all of these weird markup

main-contentplaceholder. I gave it a Datasource and assigned some allowed renderings
Normally, in Experience Editor mode I would have a tab, called "Add Here" when I press the "add new component" in the experience editor, nothing happens.
Note, I did get a message the webedit.css is not found, I don't know what this is or where to get it, but I checked my include /AppConfig/Include for Sitecore.MvcExperienceEditor.config and it is there. I just don't know what to do.
I have worked with Sitecore MVC successfully in the past but I did not set this up.
