Question

I need to create <a> tag via WebGrid but it is not visible. Although it is under the output html.

How to fix it and make it visible?

HTML code:

   @grid.GetHtml(
                            tableStyle: "grid",
                            headerStyle: "head",
                            alternatingRowStyle: "alt",
                            rowStyle: "row",
                            selectedRowStyle: "selected-row",
                            columns: grid.Columns(

                                             grid.Column("ReceiptURL", "Receipt", format: (item) => @Html.Raw(string.Format("<a target='_blank' class='' href='{0}'></a>" ,@item.ReceiptURL)), style: "")
                                    )
                                )
                            }

and HTML output:

 <tr class="row">
             <td><a target='_blank' class='' href='http://localhost:51381/Receipt/2bc1c02d-44a3-4a53-9255-98aa4a41cd53'></a></td>
        </tr>

So <a> is invisible. 🙁

Any clue?

Answer 1

it won’t be visible it doesn’t have a particular style (as @Travis said), and also your <a> is empty, I mean there is nothing between the opening <a> and the closing </a>, that’s why don’t see anything, try to put some text inside you’ll probably see it
