    Displaying Umbraco field

    Hi all,

    Loooking for a bit of help, i have a carousel (uses nivoslider package) which i am altering slightly.

    What im trying to do is get it to display the contents on the RTE Small field named 'textBox' within the carousel.

    foreach (dynamic img in nodes.Children)
        {
            if (img.HasValue("nivoSliderCaption"))
            {
                    <div id="@img.Name" class="nivo-html-caption">
                        @Html.Raw(img.nivoSliderCaption)
                    </div>                         
            }
           
            if (img.HasValue("textBox"))
            {
                   <div class="nivotext">
                        ("<umbraco:Item field="textBox" runat="server"></umbraco:Item>")
                        </div>                         
            }
        }

    The caption works all fine and for the if (img.HasValue("textBox")) if i just use some plain text for example

      if (img.HasValue("textBox"))
            {
                   <div class="nivotext">
                        @Html.Raw("hello")
                        </div>                         
            }

    It works fine and displays, but i want it to display the contents of the 'textBox' field, any ideas?

    Thanks

    Hmm I could be wrong, but won't this just work?

    if (img.HasValue("textBox"))
{
    <div class="nivotext">
           @img.textBox
    </div>                          
}

    Little note of mine - since it's RTE it looks a bit more correct to use:

    <div class="nivotext">
       @Html.Raw(img.textBox)
    </div>

    Why would you add Html.Raw to it? I thought RTE properties would work anyway.

    RTE text has a markup inside it - I suspect that its output through @img.textBox will be HTML-escaped. (And that's well-known Razor drawback - it still has no short syntax for unescaped output (like "<%=" vs "<%:" in legacy ASP.NET rendering engine).

    Nah, for the built-in Rich text editor datatype, Umbraco will automatically output the Raw HTML if you do @img.textBox.

    Sebastian, you have turned up to be right. I've just validate it (I like making everything sure on my own :-)) Text properties of a DynamicNode etc are returned as HtmlString, so there's really no need to bother about HTML encoding. Thanks for a tip.
