adding a css class with Html.TextBox

asp.net, asp.net-mvc, html, html-helper

Solution

Just prefix 'class' with an '@' as it's a reserved keyword.

<%: Html.TextBox("name", "value", new { @class: " required "})%>

If you need some background on the @ keyword, this is a good SO question to read.

Problem

Trying to add a 'class' html attribute, but I think the keyword 'class' is causing issues. ``` <%: Html.TextBox("name", "value", new {class: " required "})%> ``` Is there a workaround?
