With regards to the Razor view engine, say I want to render Html.TextBoxFor<SomeModel>(i => i.Name)
, it doesn't seem that the inline syntax works as in:
@Html.TextBoxFor<SomeModel>(i => i.Name)
This doesn't seem to work because it interprets the generic as an HTML tag. I could use a code-block approach, but then what's the best approach to output the content? The HTML string returned from this method, do I response.write it, or is there a syntax for it, or what's the approach?
Thanks.
The Razor syntax consists of Razor markup, C#, and HTML. Files containing Razor generally have a . cshtml file extension.
Razor allows you to write a mix of HTML and server-side code using C# or Visual Basic. Razor view with visual basic syntax has . vbhtml file extension and C# syntax has . cshtml file extension.
Razor is a markup syntax that lets you embed server-based code into web pages using C# and VB.Net. It is not a programming language. It is a server side markup language. Razor has no ties to ASP.NET MVC because Razor is a general-purpose templating engine. You can use it anywhere to generate output like HTML.
Razor Pages is a newer, simplified web application programming model. It removes much of the ceremony of ASP.NET MVC by adopting a file-based routing approach. Each Razor Pages file found under the Pages directory equates to an endpoint.
How about:
@(Html.TextBoxFor<SomeModel>(i => i.Name))
Do parentheses help?
