How to concatenate two strings in a <img> src tag?

Question

Here I want to concatenate two strings inside a <img> tag. How to do this??

<img src=" "/partners" + @item.AdPath" alt="" id="adimg" title="@item.AdName"  width:"50px" height="50px"/>

Any suggestion?

Solution 1

You should simply be able to do this:

<img src="/partners+@(item.AdPath)" alt="" id="adimg"
    title="@item.AdName"  width:"50px" height="50px"/>

The Razor engine will replace @item.AdPath with the actual value, giving you src="/partners+[value]".

Since the Razor expression is the only thing that's parsed, you don't have to try and work string concatenation logic into the tag - simply drop in the Razor expression where you want the value to appear.

Edit: Or, if you don't want the plus sign (not clear from your comments):

<img src="/partners@(item.AdPath)" alt="" id="adimg"
    title="@item.AdName"  width:"50px" height="50px"/>

Alternatively, you could try with String.Format:

<img src="@String.Format("/partners{0}", item.AdPath)" alt="" id="adimg"
    title="@item.AdName"  width:"50px" height="50px"/>

Solution 2

It could be done like this:

First:

<img src="@("/partners" + item.AdPath)" alt="" id="adimg" title="@item.AdName"  width:"50px" height="50px"/>

Second:

<img src="/partners@(item.AdPath)" alt="" id="adimg" title="@item.AdName"  width:"50px" height="50px"/>

I see many strings inside your <img> tag. Which ones do you need to concatenate? Or in other words: What output do you expect?

i want to concatenate /partners with @item.AdPath

[Rooney]

output should be like /partners+adpathvalues

[RajeshKdev]

Have you tried by using Server Tags <%= item.AdPath %>

[René Wolferink]

@RJK: He's using razor, not asp, so the @ is the tag indicating server-side logic.

If i give it like this /[email protected] getting like this /[email protected] not the @item.AdPath value

[Rooney]

i need /partners string with @item.AdPath value

Odd, that should work. Are your other Razor expressions parsed? Try my last update using String.Format or wrapping the Razor expressions in brackets.

[René Wolferink]

The reason /[email protected] doens't work is that razor uses intelligent recognintion for email adresses. It has evaluated that this is an email address and should not be interpreted as a razor expression, which is why that one comes out wrong. So int hat case the @(abc.xyz)syntax can be used, making razor understand it's not an email address.

@RenéWolferink Interesting! Did not know that. I suppose it's sensible to disambiguate with parentheses in these scenarios, regardless.

Hi if i want to concatenate item.AdPath + item.Status means what should i do??

[Ant P]

If you're using String.Format - src="@String.Format("/partners{0}{1}", item.AdPath, item.Status)"
