    Help with syntax in contains element.

    Ok so I have a quick question.

    I will keep it brief incase it's simple :) 

     

    Why does this work...

    .Where("categorySelector.ToString().Contains(\"1096\")")

    and this doesnt...

    @{string AVariable ="1096";}

     

    .Where("categorySelector.ToString().Contains(AVariable)")

     

    I have tried...

    .Where("categorySelector.ToString().Contains(@AVariable)")

    .Where("categorySelector.ToString().Contains(\"AVariable"\)")

    .Where("categorySelector.ToString().Contains('AVariable')")

    For context the full statement is this

    @foreach (var page in progNode.Children.Where("visible").Where("documentTypeAlias == \"Programme\"").Where("categorySelector.ToString().Contains(\"1096\")").OrderBy("createDate desc")) { 

    So something 
    }

     

     

    Thanks :)

    Hi Doogie,

    You need to pass in the variable as a parameter, e.g

    @{string AVariable ="1096";}

.Where("categorySelector.ToString().Contains(@0)",AVariable)
