Razor If Else conditional operator syntax

Question

Not having much luck  I have the following if else statement in Razor which works perfectly   lt small gt     if deletedView          Deleted        else          Created     by  lt  small gt     I am trying to do something like this    lt small gt      deletedView      Deleted     Created by  lt  small gt    But that fails miserably  What is the proper syntax

You need to put the entire ternary expression in parenthesis. Unfortunately that means you can't use "@:", but you could do something like this:

@(deletedView ? "Deleted" : "Created by")

Razor currently supports a subset of C# expressions without using @() and unfortunately, ternary operators are not part of that set.
