how to create an else if statement in Razor?

Question

I am trying to display some rows in a table. Depending on the UserGroup, the View should show different markup. An administrator can delete rows, but a moderator can only ma

Answer 1

You just use else without prepending an @. However, I don't think that is the problem with your page title. Perhaps you need to set the ViewBag.Title property? Your layout page may be depending on it being set.

@if(visible) 
    {
    @Html.TextBoxFor(cn => Model.Row_Number, new { @class = "row required digits", size = 1 })
    }
else
    {
    @Html.TextBoxFor(cn => Model.Row_Number, new { @class = "row required digits", size = 1, disabled = "disabled" })
    }

Title issue:

@{
    bool visible = Model.Visible;
    ViewBag.Title = "My Title;
}

The title has parse error because you did not set a title:

@{
    ViewBag.Title = "Home Page";
}

now for an else statement, don't use back the @ syntax:

@if(visible) 
{
    Html.TextBoxFor(bs => Model.Row_Description, new { @class = "rowdesc", size = 45 })
}
else
{
    Html.TextBoxFor(bs => Model.Row_Description, new { @class = "rowdesc", size = 45, disabled = "disabled" })
}

You are checking for a boolean, you just need an else. Also for else if, it works the same.

Your code could be simplified even more by just doing:

@Html.TextBoxFor(bs => Model.Row_Description, new { @class = "rowdesc", size = 45, disabled = visible ? "" : "disabled" })

Because you are displaying the same code anyways, just changing the attribute based on a value. To me, this becomes more readable.

Answer 3

as the question is for else if in razor, i used this for SEO purpose

in view

@{
    if (ViewBag.Option == "Mobiles")
{
    ViewBag.Title = "Mobiles";
    ViewBag.Description = "Mobiles";
    ViewBag.Keywords = "Mobiles";

}

   else if (ViewBag.Option == "holiday")
{
    ViewBag.Title = "holiday";
    ViewBag.Description = "holiday.";
    ViewBag.Keywords = "holiday";
}


else
    {
        ViewBag.Title = "home";
        ViewBag.Description = "home";
        ViewBag.Keywords = "home";
    }

}

hope helps someone.
