Question

I have if condition and I want to disable or enable my actionLink button.

How would I do it?

@Html.ActionLink("Delete", "Delete", new { id = @Model.Id})

Thanks,

If you know on the server side that the link is not available then just render a message that the action is not available:

@if(condition)
{
   @Html.ActionLink("Delete", "Delete", new { id = @Model.Id})
}
else
{
   <text>Action is not available</text>
}

Otherwise you can only disable a link with

• CSS: Disable link using css
• JS: How to enable or disable an anchor using jQuery?
