html - Razor `if` does not register closing `}` if there is an opened `<table>` tag?

Question

This code, in a Razor view:

if (true)
{
    <table>
        <tbody>
}

...

if (true)
{
        </tbody>
    </table>
}

does not run. It claims that there is no closing } on the first if() statement, and I'm guessing it's because of the <table> tag.

Is there a way I can work around this to conditionally insert my <table> tags?

Answer 1

Try prepending the tags with @::

if (true)
{
    @:<table>
        @:<tbody>
}

...

if (true)
{
        @:</tbody>
    @:</table>
}
