Re: [play-framework] [Play 2.0.4 - Template engine] Variables

[Julien Richard-Foy]

Hi, this has nothing to do with variables. In Scala if is an expression (equivalent to the `?` of Java), so you can just write:

@inputText(

  …,

  args = '_label -> "Username", 'disabled -> if (action == "disable") "disabled" else "enabled"

)

You could define an intermediate value for the result of the `if`, if you want to:

@defining(if (action == "disable") "disabled" else "enabled") { disabled =>

  @InputText(

    …,

    args = '_label -> "Username", 'disabled -> disabled

  )

}

By the way comparing String values is a weak design, I would prefer to use an enumeration or a sum type.
