满足第一个条件时执行 else 块

Question

I know there's a bunch of these type of questions but I can't find one that answers the underlying issue.

I have a simple block of code where the IF condition is true but then the else block executes anyway. I have checked in the debug console that the condition is indeed true.

    if (@Model.MajorAvailable.ToString().ToLower() == 'true') {
        $("#checkyes").attr('checked', true);
    } else {
        $("#checkno").attr('checked', true);
    }

Answer 1

if (@Model.MajorAvailable.ToString().ToLower() == true) {
    $("#checkyes").attr('checked', true);
} else {
    $("#checkno").attr('checked', true);
}

this code looks right but as @Bravo said still you are comparing string with boolean value. @Model.MajorAvailable.ToString().ToLower() this line returns stirng right?

Answer 2

Removing the quotes from 'true' seems to have worked - which is strange as the value is no longer a boolean as ToString() has been called
