Layout Dilemma: Can I use "IF" in razor sintax to provide different HTML?

Hello there, I'm wondering how to manage different document type for same page. I mean, I would like to be able to create different layouts options (so I create different DOCUMENT TYPES) and in my HTML put an IF marker to use the correct layout I planned. This because I would like to cycle all the children of a section and generate the HTML following the order provided in the content side (where one can have 2 images instead of 3, ecc...).

Thank you, sorry for my bad english

Hi Alessandro

Yes, you can do like this

@foreach (var child in Model.Content.Children())
{

  if (child.DocumentTypeAlias == "doctype1") {
    <div class="doctype1">content here</div>
  }
  else if (child.DocumentTypeAlias == "doctype2") {
    <article class="doctype2">content here</div>
  }

}

oh great, thank you, so I suppose there is also possibility for switch cases and nested loops, right?
