MVC 3 Razor Syntax for straight text output?

Question

Using Razor how/can you write straight text with out wrapping it in some type of html tag?

Example (This works but adds extra span tags):

@{ var foo = tr         


        

Answer 1

use the tags

@{ var foo = true; }
@if(foo) { Yes } else { No }

The tag signals to the razor view engine to write the contents to the output.

Alternatively, you can use @:

@{ var foo = true; }
@if(foo) { @:Yes } else { @:No }
