View 2 RepliesI have a comment form inside the blog posts. in the form, if the user is authenticated, I will assign the values of the user into textboxes. that part is as follows;
[Code]....
But when I add HTML.TextBox instead of HTML.TextBoxFor, I am not getting validation if the user erase the fileds. Also, this form is inside the indext page and it is related to another action as follows;
[Code]....
so I cannot assign ModelState.AddModelError from controller.
What should I do here.
[Code]....
The model has a required attribute for the first name property:but I would like to make this happen automatically if the property has the CustomRequiredAttribute. Is there a way to override the Html.TextBoxFor() and check for the attribute on the given property? Or is there another way to accomplish this behaviour?

How can I format it so that the datetime is displayed as "23-04-2010" without the time portion?
I need a text box which should be exactly of 7 charecters,for which I have written
Html.TextboxFor(x=>x.Number, new {maxLength = "7"};
this case takes me only 7 characters , but if I want to take less than 7, it is taking? Is there any property like maxlength which takes 7 charecters only.
not sure if this is by design or i'm missing a setting. I'm passing a ViewModel to a view. It has a customer record. on the edit section i have Html.TextBoxFor(m=> m.Customer.Name)
not all the fields are in the form. When i post, the model only retains the fields i have boxes for? how can i retain the state of the model?

Using Entity Framework with MVC2, I have a series of date textboxes, that I want to display data from the model in a short date format, but I have to use Html.TextBoxFor in order for the update code to work (Having tried using HTML.Textbox the data never gets saved to the model).
<%: Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.Item.Date, String.Format("{0:d}", Model.Item.Date))%>
I've tried manipulating the string format expression, and have added metadata to a partial class mapped to the Entity Framework model class, however still I get the following populating my textboxes at form render:
'01/01/2011 00:00:00' rather than '01/01/2011'
I have a test app with a form view.I cannot get the view to display correctly instead of displaying a series to text boxes it displays quoted html.I suspect that my problem is related to my VB syntax for my Linq The C# equivilant works but my shop uses VB so I must convert the code.Here is the code from the view:

I have a strange problem in my application.whenever i select a suggestion from the autocomplete(jquery) textbox, it first fires a blur event of a textbox first.(When i click the suggestion using mouse). But i want to fire blur event later.What should i do?
View 9 Repliesi have a little problem... I've even googled it but i came to no result
for every page, the first textbox control via
<%: Html.TextboxFor(m => m.XXX) %>
has a different size, the rest ist everytime the same... only the first one is -huge-
do you think it would be difficult to write a framework where mvc compares last html it output to the current html we want to output, and instead of sending the entire html, figure out what has changed and generate js code that will do the updating as compared to previous html? (presuming nothing was manually changed on the client using js).
View 2 RepliesThe following seems reasonable, but it returns an error:
<asp:Repeater ID="RepeaterF" runat="server" DataSourceID="DSF" >
<ItemTemplate>
<%
If Eval("Item_Batch") = 0 Then
%><tr><td></td><td colspan="2"></td><td></td></tr><%
Else %>........
Error: "Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control."
I am finding it difficult to accept that the whole Repeater approach has any benefits over just creating a loop in code, iterating through a recordset, and building a html table into a variable, then dumping it to the page. This repeater is spawning pages of code and objects, and surely this is all using up server resources.
