Question

When using an HTML Helper, what is the best method to set an attribute based on a condition. For example

<%if (Page.User.IsInRole(\"administrator\")) {%&g         


        

Answer 1

You'll need to pass a Dictionary, and add the disabled key inside an if statement.

I recommend making an overload of the extension method that takes a bool disabled parameter and adds it to a RouteValueDictionary created from the attributes parameter if it's true. (You could also remove the disabled entry from the RouteValueDictionary if it's false, and not take another parameter)
