html-helper

I have a list of enums that I am using for a user management page. I'm using the new HtmlHelper in MVC 5.1 that allows me to create a dropdown list for Enum values. I now have a need to remove the Pending value from the list, this value will only ever be set programatically and should never be set by the user. Enum: public enum UserStatus { Pending = 0, Limited = 1, Active = 2 } View: @Html.EnumDropDownListFor(model => model.Status) Is there anyway, either overriding the current control, or writing a custom HtmlHelper that would allow me to specify an enum, or enums to exclude from the

I have an ASP.Net MVC 4 app and am using the Url.Action helper like this: @Url.Action("Information", "Admin") This page is used for both adding a new and edit an admin profile. The URLs are as follows: Adding a new: http://localhost:4935/Admin/Information Editing Existing: http://localhost:4935/Admin/Information/5 <==Admin ID When I'm in the Editing Existing section of the site and decide that I would like to add a new admin I click on the following link: <a href="@Url.Action("Information", "Admin")">Add an Admin</a> The problem however that the above link is actually going to http://localhost

I have created HtmlHelper in ASP.NET MVC 4 razor view engine C#. Can I pass view model property to my helper class? For example, I have property [Required] [Display(Name = "Your Lastname")] public string Lastname { get; set; } Can I pass this property to my helper something like this @Html.Example(model => model.Lastname) and then get data annotations in helper (if this field is required what is display name and etc.)? The [Display] attribute enriches the metadata. So you could fetch the information from the metadata. For example if you wanted to retrieve the display name inside the helper:

I am writing a dirty little extension method for HtmlHelper so that I can say something like HtmlHelper.WysiwygFor(lambda) and display the CKEditor. I have this working currently but it seems a bit more cumbersome than I would prefer. I am hoping that there is a more straight forward way of doing this. Here is what I have so far. public static MvcHtmlString WysiwygFor<TModel, TProperty>(this HtmlHelper<TModel> helper, Expression<Func<TModel, TProperty>> expression) { return MvcHtmlString.Create(string.Concat("<textarea class=\"ckeditor\" cols=\"80\" id=\"", expression.MemberName(), "\" name=\

i have following code : controller method : public ActionResult Register(int? registrationTypeId) { IEnumerable<AccountType> accountTypes = new List<AccountType> { new AccountType { AccountTypeId = 1, AccountTypeName = "Red" }, new AccountType { AccountTypeId = 2, AccountTypeName = "Blue" } }; // I want to select account type on registrationTypeId ViewBag.AccountTypes = accountTypes; return View(); } View <div class="col-md-10"> @Html.DropDownListFor(n => n.AccountType, new SelectList(ViewBag.AccountTypes, "AccountTypeId", "AccountTypeName"), new { @class = "form-control" }) </div> Model

Scenario Route: /template/customize/10 Where: 10 = ID of Template() In the controller the model is created based on the template so that the View's model is actually a Customization() object which actually has an Id of 0 because it's new. In the view I render @Html.HiddenFor( m => m.Id ) and the resulting value of that hidden input is 10 , though it should be 0 because m is of type Customization. I've run into this before with MVC 2 and worked around it by not using helper methods. Questions Is there annotation or something I can add to the Html Helper method to actually render the correct

I want to create a custom actionlink but I don't know how to do this while fulfilling my needs. I worked with custom htmlhelpers before but this is a bit more tricky for me. The actionlink that I want to call needs to be like this: @Html.CustomActionLink("LinkText", "Area","Controller","TabMenu","Action",routeValues, htmlAttributes) so an example would be: @Html.CustomActionLink("Click here","Travel","Trip","Index","Index", new { par1 = "test", par2 = test2, new { @class = "font-color-blue" })` Which would generate this html: <a class="font-color-blue" href="/Trip/Travel/Index/Index?par1=test
