Question

Can I optimize the class assignment here at all? I have to do this in a lot of different places and am trying to figure out how to make it less…copy paste-ish / inline.

@foreach(var m in Model.ObjectList)
{
 <td @if(m.RandomObject.isFlagged){
     <text>class="flagged"</text>
     }
 >
  @m.RandomObject.Name @m.RandomObject.Description
 </td>
}

Note that each ObjectList in the different places has differnt RandomObjects.

I suppose this would work too, but still seems not best practice:

<td class="flagged@(m.RandomObject.isFlagged)">...

and then have the css definition be .flaggedtrue

Answer 1

I usually use the ? ternary operator for this kind of thing

<td class="@(m.RandomObject.isFlagged ? "flagged" : "")">
  ...
</td>
