  I have a razor page in which I want to display certain text if the value of the ViewData[“IsActive”] is true. I’m not getting any text.

  @if (ViewData["IsActive"]) {

  text 1

  } else {

  text 2

  }

  I tried writing @{ if statement here } but still doesn't work.

  I know for sure that ViewData[“IsActive”] returns true.

  HI,
  
  Please use the following code snippet:

  @if(bool.Parse(ViewData["isActive"].ToString())) {
      <h2>test</h2>  
  }
  else {
      <h2>test fail</h2>
  }
  
  

  It works for us and should work for you too !!!
