MVC Razor for loop

Question

I have this code (nested inside a form post) but am continually getting the error that it's missing the closing }

@for(int i=0;i< itemsCount; i++){
    <input type="hidden" @string.Format("name= item_name_{0} value= {1}",i,items[i].Description) >
    <input type="hidden" @string.Format("name= item_name_{0} value= {1}",i,items[i].UnitPrice.ToString("c"))>
} 

I've been staring at it long enough...can anyone help?

Try put @: before your html code like this:

 @for(int i=0;i< itemsCount; i++)
 {
    @: html code here
 } 

Alternatives: 1. wrap your html code with <text></text> 2. use HtmlHelper to generate the html code
