What i'm looking for is to limit the number of the thumbnails (img) only and keep the foreach as it is.
Let's say that I have 6 items in the folder, I need to get all the items but only the first 2 of the image tags.
Is that possible?
Here's my code,
@{
string folderPath = Server.MapPath("/media");
string[] files = Directory.GetFiles(folderPath + "/" + Model.Content.GetPropertyValue("Name"));
}
@foreach (string item in files){
<li data-src="/media/@Model.Content.GetPropertyValue("Name")/@Path.GetFileName(item)" data-sub-html="">
<a href="">
<img src="/media/@Model.Content.GetPropertyValue("Name")/@Path.GetFileName(item)"/>
</a>
</li>
}
The final result needed looks like the following:
<li data-src="/media/806.png" data-sub-html="">
<a href="">
<img src="/media/806.png"/>
</a>
</li>
<li data-src="/media/853.png" data-sub-html="">
<a href="">
<img src="/media/853.png"/>
</a>
</li>
<li data-src="/media/089.png" data-sub-html="">
<a href="">
</a>
</li>
<li data-src="/media/931.png" data-sub-html="">
<a href="">
</a>
</li>
<li data-src="/media/061.png" data-sub-html="">
<a href="">
</a>
</li>
<li data-src="/media/735.png" data-sub-html="">
<a href="">
</a>
</li>
why not use a for loop with index and then do a if statment to limit display?
such as:
@{
string folderPath = Server.MapPath("/media");
string[] files = Directory.GetFiles(folderPath + "/" + Model.Content.GetPropertyValue("Name"));
}
@for(int i =0; i < files.Length; i++)
{
var item = files[i];
<li data-src="/media/@Model.Content.GetPropertyValue("Name")/@Path.GetFileName(item)" data-sub-html="">
<a href="">
// when index is 0 and 1 (first two), render image
@if(i <= 1)
{
<img src="/media/@Model.Content.GetPropertyValue("Name")/@Path.GetFileName(item)"/>
}
</a>
</li>
}
