Fix for Blazor error BL9986: Component attributes do not support complex content (mixed C# and markup)

Blazor 0.3.0 was released recently, and I thought of upgrading one of my previously created Blazor CRUD app to the recent version 0.3.0. The Blazor app uses a JavaScript function to control the visibility of the HTML controls present in the Todo list element. The HTML elements inside the list are given a dynamic ID to have uniqueness. Like,

<input id="txt_@todo.ID" style="display:none;">

Here, the ID attribute contains C# and HTML markup. Unfortunately, this gives an error BL9986: Component attributes do not support complex content (mixed C# and markup) while compiling in 0.3.0 version. This is a very common use case in any application to manipulate or apply markup based on the server-side data like applying different CSS classes based on a C# variable. In the first place, I was wondering why Blazor is not allowing this and unfortunately, there is not much help available online to fix it. Read More

Update: Removed JavaScript dependency from the Blazor CRUD App

Yesterday I posted how to create a CRUD App using Blazor and ASP.NET Core and got a good response from folks on Facebook and Twitter. This Blazor app is using JavaScript for showing/hiding the HTML elements on the page. David Masterson on twitter pointed out that it can be done in another neat way that too without JavaScript and I thought of sharing with you (with his permission) how to update the same CRUD blazor app with no dependency on JavaScript.
