Simple Breadcrumbs in Razor

-
If you wish to add Breadcrumb navigation to your site. This is a quick and easy way to do it.  This is only effective if every controller has an Index view and if you are passing route variables such as 'acct=xxx' then this will not accommodate those values so you have to make sure your app is able to manage without the variables and offer another option.

@Html.ActionLink("Home", "Index", "Home")

@if(ViewContext.RouteData.Values["controller"].ToString() != "Home") {

@Html.ActionLink(ViewContext.RouteData.Values["controller"].ToString(), "Index", ViewContext.RouteData.Values["controller"].ToString())
}

@if(ViewContext.RouteData.Values["action"].ToString() != "Index"){
    @Html.ActionLink(ViewContext.RouteData.Values["action"].ToString(), ViewContext.RouteData.Values["action"].ToString(), ViewContext.RouteData.Values["controller"].ToString())
}

Sticky Footer made simple

-
CSS Footers are simple but people tend to overthink them.  Here is how it works You have two pieces A container that all your other stuff is in A footer that you want to always stay at the bottom of the page In Blazor I put this container on my content pages and not my host page because I didn't want my left hand nav to be involved <div class="container"> All my content </div> <footer> Centered footer content </footer> And the CSS .container {     width:100%;     padding: 0 15px; } footer {     font-size: 12px; (you could also use a vw value here)     padding-top:20px;     background-color: #xxx;     color: #fff;     margin: auto;     height: 60px;     width: 100%;     position: sticky; //absolute;     bottom: 0;     text-align: center; }
