Also, once the code is changed to @(Model.favorite ? "yes" : "no") it renders to "no", which I get because because before it rendered to "false" before. But the new layout code from our "designer" is suppose to be "yes" So what exactly is setting this to false the first run and no the second time, and why does it not expressed properly what the designers want? Here is the markup from the designer: <h5><label>Favorite:</label> Yes</h5>

So why do you say that it 'is suppose to be "yes"'?

In any case, you might want to make a bug report to the Support staff.
