I am trying to pass the value that a user enters into a html.Textboxfor to an html.Action link. As shown below :
<%=Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.OrderQty)%>
<p class="button" >
<%: Html.ActionLink("Add to cart",
"AddToCart",
"ShoppingCart",
new { id = Model.Product.ProductId, Qty = Model.OrderQty }, "")%>
</p>
But when i put a breakpoint in the AddToCart Qty is always 0 :-(
i have an actionlink that doesnt seem to work as it should.
i am trying to pass a parameter to a URL that is in a different area and it isnt carrying the parameter.
[Code]....
the link generated is;
localhost/user/vacancy/details
whereas what i want is;
localhost/user/vacancy/details/6
I did some google searching on this, but I could not find anything useful.
Basically what I am trying to do is pass some sensetive information to an ActionResult through the click of a HTML ActionLink.
The information I need passing through is, the ProductID and the User IP Address.
So just to clarify:
1) User clicks { I like Product } link (HTML ActionLink)
2) That sends the Product ID and the IP Address of the user to the ActionResult in the Controller.
I am new to Asp.net MVC 2. I am unable to get value for Html.TextBoxFor(m = > m.name) in view. I can get this value in Controller.
View 12 RepliesI've been trying to format the date in a view form in a textboxfor and it seems everything I try doesn't seem to work. I found this great partialview example but it doesn't work when applied to EditorFor. Again works great when using the DisplayFor HTML helper method but still spits out the time at the end when trying to format for a textbox.
View 4 RepliesI my view model I have a property defined as follows:

In my view I have this:

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?
Is client validation only enabled when you use EditorFor, not TextBoxFor ? I'mcalling EnableClientValidation but my script is not being generated.

Does any one know how to disable a Html.TextBoxFor HtmlHelper from showing an error via class="input-validation-error", I would like the handle error only via Html.ValidateFor not from the TextBoxFor.

I am new to Asp.net MVC. I want to show watermark in textboxfor where there is no data.
But I am not getting.
I'm having a problem understanding how to use TextBoxFor with a DateTime field (in particular how to add htmlAttributes). MVC has helpfully scaffolded the following for me:
[Code]....
I now want to add an htmlAttribute to this, to make the rendered <input> element read-only, for example:
new {@readonly="true"} The problem I have, is that the MSDN documentation for TextBoxFor (see [URL] says only allows two arguments are allowed, the LINQ expression, and a dictionary or object containing the htmlAttributes. So I have two questions:
1. What is the role of "String.Format("{0:g}", Model.LastPolled)" in the scaffolded version? This obviously works, but doesn't seem to be an htmlAttribute.
2. How should I modify the scaffolded version so that the readonly attribute will be used?
I tried this but for @class and size doesn't work.I want to reduce the size of the textbox but when I specify the width in the css class or use size=25 doesn't change the size.

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:
[Code]....
So i'm working on the form that i started MVC with - the problem is that i'm NOT using a ViewModel for the view, its an actual Linq to SQL object. And so far it works fine. This form is a beast and id rather not refactor it to use viewmodels....
My big problem now is that depending some condition, i pretty much set almost everything to disabled when a particular dropdown is selcted (to mimic a deactivated state) - when the user hits submit, the model fields are now null, even tho you can see them filled in (just greyed out and unselectable) and validation refuses them.
Is there anyway around this other than to refactor the Views to use ViewModels (and set different validation rules so submit works)?
