MVC :: Custom Strong Type HTML Helper For Checkboxes?

Oct 1, 2010

MVC contains a strong typed HTML Helper (HTML.CehckBoxFor()) this takes a bool and returns a bool. To make the URL smaller I am thinking to change the bool values on the model object to byte or somthing like that so the url only contains &Parameter=1.

I have found this snippet :

[Code]....

But I have no clue how to turn this in to a strong typed HTML Helper for checkbox that takes byte instead of bool. Its also important that the model object is set with byte instead of bool.

MVC: When To Use Custom HTML Helper Methods Vs Html.RenderAction

Feb 10, 2010

It's a little unclear for me on when to use a custom helper method and when to use RenderAction and also when to simply use ViewData instead. Some of their functions overlap slightly.

For example, if I were to create a Category navigation bar, would I create a new helper method and place that in some partial view? I had initially though of doing this, but I read on some blog to use RenderAction instead.

Assume the list of categories is coming from some data source.

I'm trying to write a controller method that returns an ActionResult.

In this method, i would like to:

2. Capture and store the HTML helper's rendered HTML in a string

3. Return the method with the rendered HTML wrapped as a JSON

How do i call the Html Helper method from my controller method? Simply using the static class HtmlHelper does not work.

How To Make A Custom Strongly Typed Html Helper Method

Dec 2, 2010

Now I found out how to create custom html helpers

using System;
namespace MvcApplication.Helpers {
public class InputlHelper {
public static string Input(this HtmlHelper helper, string name, string text) {
return String.Format("<input name='{0}'>{1}</input>", name, text);
}
}
}

Now how to turn it into a strongly typed helper method InputFor Like it is in the framework?I don't need the Html.TextBoxFor method, I know it exists. I am just curious in how to implement this behavior myself and used this as a simple example.PS. I was looking in the mvc source code but couldn't find a trace of this mysterious TextBoxFor. I only found TextBox. Am I looking at the wrong code?

C# - Pass Model Values As Javascript Function Parameters From Inside Mvc Html Helper Such A Html.Radio?

Jul 20, 2010

I think I need to drop in some escape characters, but I'm not quite sure where. Here is the javascript function I'm attempting to call:

function setData(associateValue, reviewDateValue) {
var associate = document.getElementById("Associate");
var reviewDate = document.getElementById("ReviewDate");
associate.value = associateValue;
reviewDate.value = reviewDateValue;
}

Here is the asp .net mvc line where I'm attempting to create a Radio button with a click event that calls the above function and passes data from the model as javascript parameter values.

<%= Html.RadioButton("Selected", item.Selected, new { onClick="setData('<%=item.Associate%>','<%=item.ReviewDate%>' )" } )%>

The above throws a bunch of compile issues and doesn't work. A call such as the following does call the javascript, but doesn't get the data from the model.

<%= Html.RadioButton("Selected", item.Selected, new { onClick="setData('item.Associate','item.ReviewDate' )" } )%>
<%= Html.RadioButton("Selected", item.Selected, new { onClick="setData('item.Associate','item.ReviewDate' )" } )%>
<% String functionCall = String.Format("setData('{0}','{1}')", Html.Encode(item.Associate), Html.Encode(item.ReviewDate )) ; %>
<%= Html.RadioButton("Selected", item.Selected, new { onClick=functionCall } )%>

MVC Html Helper Rendering?

Jan 20, 2010

I was wondering if it's possible to render an Html Helper in a View inside a codeblock. So instead of:

And have this render. Of course as it is, it wont render, so is there a way to programically decide if a textbox can be added without having to have a million delimiters in the page to accomplish this?

MVC :: Create 2 Html Helper

Mar 15, 2010

I am trying to create 2 Html helpers but that use the String Type as in MVC 2.

1. Html.FileFor Would render something like: <input type="file"

2. Html.Buttom and Html.Submit that would render <input type="button" or <input type="submit" In this case I suppose it makes no sense to have the For.

I know how to do (2) unless there would be something more than rendering the help and defining the Html attributes. However (1) I don't know how to do it

MVC :: Getting The ID For A Model Property From HTML Helper

Jan 25, 2011

Is there a way to retrieve the client side ID for a model property similar to how the helpers like LabelFor etc generate the ID? For example, I have a model with a DateOfBirth property. I want to hook up that field to a jQuery DatePicker. Normally, I would hook up the date picker like this:

[Code]....

This works fine but hard codes the DateOfBirth property name. Ideally, I would like to use this:

[Code]....

Is this already available out of the box somewhere? I just created an extension method on the HtmlHelper class that does exactly this, but I wondered if there was already something built-in so I don't have to reinvent and test the wheel.

MVC :: Accessing Html Helper Controls From The Controller?

Aug 13, 2010

In a webforms application, it's possible to add a server control to the markup and then access that control from the corresponding code behind file, but I'm not sure of the MVC equivalent of this functionality.

I've been looking at some tutorials, and it appears that in MVC applications, instead of using server controls, the examples are using HTML helpers, such as Html.TextBox, etc.

However, while I can find examples html helpers in views, I can't find any examples of how these helpers are accessed in the controllers, so I've declared an Html.TextBox in my view but don't know how to access its value in the controller when I hit enter.

C# - Disable Autocomplete On Html Helper Textbox In MVC?

Mar 11, 2011

I would in normal asp.net use a theme to turn off autocomplete on all text boxes on an entire site. However i cannot do this on MVC because nothing in the theme .skin files seems to work.

I have this in my .skin file:

<asp:TextBox runat="server" autocomplete="off" />

however this does not render at all, of course because this is not how MVC works. Anyway is there any way i can get this sort of thing to work.The site i am trying to do it on is too big to warrant changing every textbox or creating a new HTML helper to solve the issue?
