Add onblur event to ASP.Net MVC's Html.TextBox

Question

What's the correct syntax for an HTML helper (in MVC2) to define an onblur handler where the textbox is generated with code like:

<%=Html.TextBox(
    "ChooseOptions.AddCount" + order.ID,
    (order.Count > 0) ?  AddCount.ToString() : "",
    new { @class = "{number: true}  small-input" }
)

thx

Answer 1

Add the onblur to htmlattributes

<%=Html.TextBox(
    "ChooseOptions.AddCount" + order.ID,
    (order.Count > 0) ?  AddCount.ToString() : "",
    new { @class = "{number: true}  small-input", onblur = "alert('fired')" }
) %>

Or a better way add it with jQuery

$('#ChooseOptions_AddCount' + id).onblur(function() { alert('fired'); });
