ASP.NET Web Pages use Razor markup with C# or VB code
Razor Markup
Razor is a simple markup syntax for embedding server code
(C# or VB) into ASP.NET web pages.
Example
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<title>Web Pages Demo</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello Web Pages</h1>
<p>The time is @DateTime.Now</p>
</body>
</html>
Run example »
The page above contains both ordinary HTML markup and Razor markup.
Razor Syntax for C#
- C# code blocks are enclosed in @{ ... }
- Inline expressions (variables or functions) start with @
- Code statements end with semicolon
- Variables are declared with the var keyword
- Strings are enclosed with quotation marks
- C# code is case sensitive
- C# files have the extension .cshtml
C# Example
<!-- Single statement block -->
@{ var myMessage = "Hello World"; }
<!-- Inline expression or variable -->
<p>The value of myMessage is: @myMessage</p>
<!-- Multi-statement block -->
@{
var greeting = "Welcome to our site!";
var weekDay = DateTime.Now.DayOfWeek;
var greetingMessage = greeting + " Today is: " + weekDay;
}
<p>The greeting is: @greetingMessage</p>
