I have a simple application roughly following the nerd dinner tutorial. I am trying to get [DisplayName("Fancy Name")] to pretty up the output from <%= Html.LabelFor(model => model.Booking.Name)%> in my create/edit view. I am using a form view controller which looks like this...

I have tried giving the DisplayName property but it doesn't work.
Given the following object
public class CompetitionYear : IValidatableObject{public Guid Id { get; set; } [Display(ResourceType = typeof(Terms), Name = "Description")]public string Description { get; set; } [Display(ResourceType = typeof(Terms), Name = "Startdate")]public DateTime Startdate { get; set; } [Display(ResourceType = typeof(Terms), Name = "Enddate")]public DateTime Enddate { get; set; } }
In a View I want to show a table with in the headers the DisplayName of the respective properties.
The view is like this:
@model IEnumerable<CompetitionYear> @{ ViewBag.Title = "Index";} <h2>Index</h2> <p> @Html.ActionLink("Create New", "Create")</p><table> <tr> <th></th> <th> @Html.LabelFor(m => m.FirstOrDefault().Description) </th> <th> @Html.LabelFor(m => m.FirstOrDefault().Startdate) </th> <th> @Html.LabelFor(m => m.FirstOrDefault().Enddate) </th> </tr> @foreach (var item in Model) { <tr> <td> @Html.ActionLink("Edit", "Edit", new { id=item.Id }) | @Html.ActionLink("Details", "Details", new { id=item.Id }) | @Html.ActionLink("Delete", "Delete", new { id=item.Id }) </td> <td> @item.Description </td> <td> @String.Format("{0:D}", item.Startdate) </td> <td> @String.Format("{0:D}", item.Enddate) </td> </tr>} </table>
In the headers I want to show the DisplayName of the property. The only way I can get it working is as shown above. It really looks ugly and I can't imagine there isn't a better solution. Is there a better solution and how does it look like?
I got custom attributes to work on the server and client, now I want to DRY things up just a little more. How do you override the pattern for RegularExpressionAttribute to include the DisplayName?
Right now I am like this:

How to get at the DisplayName?
What is the best way to retrieve the display name attribute for an item in your model? I see a lot of people using the LabelFor helper for everything, but a label isn't appropriate if I just want to list the data out. Is there an easy way just get the Name Attribute if I just want to print it out in, say a paragraph?
View 1 RepliesWhy is CultureInfo.DisplayName in [Sami][1] all of a sudden? I use it to display a list of country names. Not a good idea perhaps but it worked until recently and I'm quite sure it was in Swedish (I guess it could have been English.)
View 2 Repliesi would localize the text of DisplayName attribute: i know that at the moment is not possible (i hope that the next version of mvc will do it automatically) so i tried to search how to do it and i found this link:

but i didn't understand how to finish the lookup function.
here some informations from the first minutes.
View 7 RepliesSo, I've got an contact form in my MVC 2 application.
I'd like to programatically email all properties of my "ContactModel".
Here is what I'd like to do in psuedo-ish code:
[Code]....
In case it matters...ContactModel sets up the DisplayName attributes like this:
[DisplayName("First Name")]
public string FirstName {get; set ;}
I'd like to keep this nice and DRY by not repeating the DisplayName names.
Specifically, I'd like to enumerate over each property in my ContactModel, get its DisplayName, and get its submitted value.
I have a Car class that I'm trying to display in an MVC 3 view using the WebGrid helper. Below are the Car and it's metadata class.
Car class:
[MetadataType(typeof(CarMetadata))]
public partial class Car
{
// car implementation
}
Car metadata class:
public class CarMetadata
{
[DisplayName("Car Name")]
[StringLength(100, ErrorMessageResourceType = typeof(ValidationText), ErrorMessageResourceName="CarNameDescriptionLength")]
[Required]
public string CarName { get; set; }
}
View contents:
@model List<Car>
...
var grid = new WebGrid(Model, canPage: true, rowsPerPage: 10);
grid.Pager(WebGridPagerModes.NextPrevious);
@grid.GetHtml(
htmlAttributes: new { id = "grid" },
columns: grid.Columns(
grid.Column("CarName", ?????)
));
GOAL: I'd like to figure out how to use the DisplayName data annotation as the column header text in the WebGrid (?????). Does anyone know how this is accomplished?

I am a new to WCF. I have written ajax to use a web service before, but on this project I am trying to use ajax to WCF.After I build the project and wcf using ajax, I receive the return successfully. But, 10 or more minutes later I don't get a return, the ajax calls the error function, and the fiddler returns nothing.
If I rebuild the project without any source modifying, I receive the return successfully again.
In regards to web development PHP works seamlessly embedded inside HTML pages and is parsed before the HTML itself (hence the name PHP!).I'm thinking of starting to learn ASP.NET and C# and it greatly boggles me how do these two Microsoft technologies work in tandem when compared to PHP which is a single entity in itself. I still can't understand how any logic written in C# files is tied to HTML pages that contain ASP.NET scripts.

How can I get this working in asp.net number 2 to work in asp.net format.
I am about to give up on this pos...unless somebody here simply gives me the right code to fix my problem. I'm tired of running in circles, and scouring the internet with no progress at all.
Problem: not updating collections with FK's.
Example:
Forum forum = new Forum("Sample");
category.AddForum(forum);
categoryRepository.Update(category); <- fails with transient object error for forum with no CategoryId.
Mapped right using References<Category> and HasMany<Forum>. Conventions are as follows.
Ref:
instance.Column(instance.Property.Name + "Id");
HasMany:
instance.Key.Column(instance.EntityType.Name + "Id");
instance.Cascade.All();
instance.Access.ReadOnlyPropertyThroughCamelCaseField(CamelCasePrefix.None);
Now, I've tried every possible setting for inverse, all the different cascades, on both sides. Nothing works. It just flat fails, telling me it can't insert NULL for Forum.CategoryId (field, not entity prop).

I have an aspx page with a Menu web control. The menu web control renders as a html table on browser. My plan is to add css styles on the aspx page which will be sent to the browser. Let's say I add the following style to the aspx page
td
{
background-color: Red;
}
This style gets sent to the browser together with the rendered html table
<table>
<tr> [code]....
But the style is not applied. I'm really puzzled why this is the case. In general how do we predict the effect of CSS on ASP.NET wen controls?

It's not hitting my method at all when I click the image. And please note, I do not want to use an ImageButton. I want to figure out how to get this working with a plain old input tag.
Now I have run into new problems I'm building a blog in .NET MVC and I have made a SP for inserting member details. Now I have split the member table in ZipCode and City then I have FK in member to these fields. My problem is that th FK in member table is INT and I want to pass in VARCHAR to the db so I can check if the zipcode and city exists, if they dont exists I insert them and get the id to insert into member table. My problem is that I can't mapp it this way in Entity Framework, so I wonder if there is a way to work around this in the sp? ZipCod I think is Postal Code in English.
