Call method from template using template value as parameter

[Cool Breeze]

Hello,

I'm trying to convert the following element of a dynamic table into a template for a list view but am not sure how to go about passing the template value to the function in order to get the correct display value.

Here is the HTML version:

<tr>
    <td colspan="4" style="padding-left:10px; font-weight:bold; font-size:larger">
        @{
            var orderStatus = EnumHelper<OrderStatuses>.GetDisplayValue(order.OrderStatus);
        }
        @orderStatus
    </td>
</tr>

My issue is getting the OrderStatus passed into the EnumHelper method.

<tr>
    <td colspan="4" style="padding-left:10px; font-weight:bold; font-size:larger">
        @{
            var orderStatusDescription = EnumHelper<OrderStatuses>.GetDisplayValue(#=OrderStatus#);
        }
        @orderStatusDescription
    </td>
</tr>

What would the syntax be for this type of scenario or is it not supported (or is there a better way)?

Thanks!

Hello Joe,

the helper method is executed on the server, and the #= # interpolation occurs on the client. You should port your helper methods to the client, so that you can do something like this:

#= getDisplayValue(OrderStatus) #.
