  Mix text and funtion inside a If statement

  Oct 16, 2019 10:03 PM|Baze72|LINK

  How can I add text ( - )  in front of the ticket.Phone. So I want the display to be - 555-5555 instead of 555-5555.

      <td>@ticket.RequestedBy @if (ticket.Phone != null)
      { 
          @ticket.Phone}</td>

  Thanks,

  EB

  Use HTML.

  <td>
  	@ticket.RequestedBy 
  	@if (ticket.Phone != null)
  	{ 
  		<span>-</span> @ticket.Phone
  	}
  </td>

  <td>
  	@ticket.RequestedBy 
  	@if (ticket.Phone != null)
  	{ 
  		<span>-</span> @ticket.Phone
  	}
  </td>

  I figured it would be easy!

  one quick question: the - shows up even if Ticket.Phone is null. Why would that be?

  Hi Baze72,

  Baze72

  the - shows up even if Ticket.Phone is null.

  What does the "null" mean? Ticket.Phone = null or Ticket.Phone = "" ? For these two conditions, you can use string.IsNullOrEmpty().

  <td>
  	@ticket.RequestedBy 
  	@if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(ticket.Phone))
  	{ 
  		<span>-</span> @ticket.Phone
  	}
  </td>

  If this is not the case, could you please show us an example?

  Best Regards,
