ASP.NET MVC 3: Override “name” attribute with TextBoxFor

Question

Is it possible when using Html.TextBoxFor to override the name attribute?

I have tried with no success. I need to use TextBoxFor to get client side vali

Answer 1

Rob, actually there is a much simpler way. Instead of name, use Name:

@Html.TextBoxFor(x => x.Data, new { Name = Model.Key + "_Data", id = Model.Key + "_Data" })
