How can you specify a css class name on ActionLinks in Razor?

Question

The following code generates an error:

@Html.ActionLink("Title", "action", new { id=1 }, new { @class = "myCssClass" }); 

I tried to use @ since class is a keyword. How should I write it when using razor?

Edit

The problem was not really the at sign, but that I didn't use blocks together with my if:

@if (blabla)     @Html.ActionLink("Title", "action", new { id=1 }, new { @class = "myCssClass" }); 

Works:

@if (blabla) {     @Html.ActionLink("Title", "action", new { id=1 }, new { @class = "myCssClass" }); } 

Up voted both answers since they made me realize the problem.

Answer 1

Try to write something like:

@(Html.ActionLink("Title", "action", new { id=1 }, new { @class = "myCssClass" })); 

There is a good post about Razor related to your problem: ScottGu Blog

Answer 2

Simply:

@Html.ActionLink("Title", "action", new { id=1 }, new { @class = "myCssClass" }) 

will work in ASP.NET MVC 3 RC2. Razor is intelligent.
