Boolean with html helper Hidden and HiddenFor
asp.net-mvc, html-helper, html.hiddenfor
Solution
1) use different (unique) ids
2) don't use this helper, use
<input type="hidden" name="the-name"
value="<%= Html.AttributeEncode(Model.TheBool) %>" id="TheBool_1216786" />
Problem
What's up with this? The viewmodel variable is a bool with value true. ``` <%= Html.HiddenFor(m => m.TheBool) %> <%= Html.Hidden("IsTimeExpanded",Model.TheBool) %> <input type="hidden" value="<%=Model.TheBool%>" name="TheBool" id="TheBool"> ``` Results in: ``` <input id="TheBool" name="TheBool" value="False" type="hidden"> <input id="TheBool" name="TheBool" value="False" type="hidden"> <input value="True" name="TheBool" id="TheBool" type="hidden"> ``` What am I doing wrong? Why don't the helpers work as intended?
