Images in MvcContrib Grid

Question

Hi guys,

Topic question:

If i already have helper which returns me image according with parameter (true or false) I called it like this

<%=Html.Status(item.Availible)%>

and it is returns me

I was thisnking to use MvcContrib but i cant use <%= %> syntax in embeded blocks http://www.jeremyskinner.co.uk/2009/02/22/rewriting-the-mvccontrib-grid-part-2-new-syntax/comment-page-1/#comment-3596

Then i find out that it is possible to do like this: p => "img tag src=/images/Available.png/>").Named.(“A”).DoNotEncode();

But i want to put conditions, somth that like that:

if(item.Availible)

 column.For(p => "img tag src=/images/Available.gif").Named   (“A”).DoNotEncode();

else

 column.For(p => "img tag=/images/Notavailable.gif").Named(“A”).DoNotEncode();

i was tried to make it like this:

column.For(p => ((item.Availible==false) ? "img tag src=/images/Notavailable.png" : "img tag=/images/Availible.png").Named(“A”).DoNotEncode();

but it is doesn't working properly.

is there any way of doing this?

**"img tag" i put just here because looks like html tags doesn't allows here

I think this is what you're looking for:

column.For(p => p.Available(true) ? "<img src=\"/images/Available.gif\">" : "<img src=\"/images/Notavailable.gif\">").Named("A").DoNotEncode();
