ASP.NET MVC3 - textarea with @Html.EditorFor

Question

I have ASP.NET MVC3 app and I have also form for add news. When VS2010 created default view I have only text inputs for string data, but I want to have textarea for news tex

Answer 1

Someone asked about adding attributes (specifically, 'rows' and 'cols'). If you're using Razor, you could just do this:

@Html.TextAreaFor(model => model.Text, new { cols = 35, @rows = 3 })

That works for me. The '@' is used to escape keywords so they are treated as variables/properties.
