    String Manipulation in a Partial View Macro

    Hi 

    I am trying to replace all of the spaces in a string to a hyphan.  EG:

    Fortitude Valley will equal Fortitude-Valley.  

    var sub = p.GetProperty("suburb").Value.Replace(" ", "-"); is causing me problems.  I have tried: var sub = p.GetProperty("suburb").Value.ToString.Replace(" ", "-"); al setting var sub = p.GetProperty("suburb").Value; then doing @var.Replace(" ","-") but not go. 

    Any help here please?

    Thanks

    How about

    var sub = p.GetProperty("suburb").Value.ToString().Replace(" ", "-")

    Generally it's better to use GetPropertyValue than GetProperty, e.g

    var sub= p.GetPropertyValue("suburb").ToString().Replace(" ","-");

    One further improvement, you can ensure you are returned a string by specifying the return type, e.g

    var sub= p.GetPropertyValue<string>("suburb").Replace(" ","-");
