Displaying default Image in a list when the container item is null

Hello I would like to display a default image on a list when there is no value in the appropriate field Image55x74. I would like to put an if statement either in the cs or the aspx file but I am not sure how to access a value from a Container. Does anyone know how to do this? I imagine that if i did it in the CS code it would be something line this:


        protected static string GetThumbnailImage()
        {
            if (Container.CurrentPage["Image55x74"] != null)
                return (Container.CurrentPage["Image55x74"]);
            return "default.gif";
        }

The aspx could look something like this:

This doesn't work as Container is not recognised. Thanks. Victor

This was answer was given to me. You could do the following:


’ alt=”” />
 
 
 
OR,
 
 
’ alt=”” />
 
 
protected static string GetThumbnailImage(PageData pd) 
        { 

            return (pd["Image55x74"] != null ? pd["Image55x74"] : "default.gif"); 

        }

Both solutions expect the Property Image55x74 to be a string. If not – you have to cast it to a string.
