Not able to display images using calculated column conditionally

Hello

 

I am using classic view in SharePoint Online and created calculated column and added formula as mentioned below

=IF([Countdown]>=271,"<IMG src='/test/Images/Valid.GIF"&"'/>",IF([Countdown]>0,"<IMG src='/test/Images/Expiring.GIF"&"'/>","<IMG src='/test/Images/Invalid.GIF"&"'/>"))

 

It is throwing error "The formula contains a syntax error or is not supported". I know this can be done easily in Modern View , but I have to implement in classic view. I am not able to figure out where is the issue.

  • Avi65 Yes, it can be enabled at either tenant level or at site collection (site) level.

     

    It is not supported for SharePoint sub-site level. So, enable it at site collection level and you should be able to use it at sub-site level.

  • Avi65 HTML is no longer supported in calculated column formula in SharePoint online.

     

    Some users have added HTML markup or script elements to calculated fields. This is an undocumented use of the feature, and we will block the execution of custom markup in calculated fields in SharePoint Online from June 13, 2017 onwards.

    You may need to use client side rendering (CSR) / JSLink for you requirements in classic experience.
