    Error with formatting

    Hi

    I'm trying to implemente a breadcrumb with the following code : 

    <umbraco:Macro  runat="server" language="cshtml">
    @inherits umbraco.MacroEngines.DynamicNodeContext
      
      @foreach(var level in @Model.Ancestors().Where("Visible"))
      {
      &nbsp;&raquo;&nbsp;    <---- Does NOT work
      <a href="@level.Url">@level.Name</a>
      }
      &nbsp;&raquo;&nbsp; <---- Works fine
      @Model.Name
    </umbraco:Macro>

    My second &nbsp;&raquo;&nbsp; works as intended but the first one fails.

    Could anyone explain why? By the way, i'm used to work in vb so this c-stuff is new to me :)

    / Ulrik

    Hi, in these cases it's usually good to wrap the html in <text> tags, 

    <umbraco:Macro  runat="server" language="cshtml">
    @inherits umbraco.MacroEngines.DynamicNodeContext
      
      @foreach(var level in @Model.Ancestors().Where("Visible"))
      {
       <text>&nbsp;&raquo;&nbsp;</text>     <---- Add <text>
      <a href="@level.Url">@level.Name</a>
      }
       &raquo;
      @Model.Name
    </umbraco:Macro>

    Thanks for the response Jonas. Sounds logical :)

    Tried it but got this error : 

    The 'text' property of 'umbraco.presentation.templateControls.Macro' cannot be declared as an inner property, it must be declared as an attribute.

    ouch, yes - reminds me, the <text> tag does not work in razor direct in a template ( http://umbraco.codeplex.com/workitem/30098 )... you will need to make a macro of your code to make it work. Might be other workarounds also, but I would recommend a separate macro.

    Another alternative : add the @: before the markup instead of <text>. Shorter syntax, and should work in fine template too.

    @foreach(var level in @Model.Ancestors().Where("Visible"))
    {
     @:&nbsp&raquo;&nbsp     <---- Add @:
