One of the great things about ASP.NET MVC is the routing engine. I love to generate my urls and not having anything break when I change the routes. However, I'm not sure how I can apply this mechanism on the client side. Let's imagine a common scenario where I have two dropdown lists and the content of the second list depends on the se...

I'm writing some unit tests to assert that all our controller action methods are marked with proper custom attributes, but I don't really know what the criteria is for determining whether a public method can act as MVC action or not. I would assume that a criteria could be the return value type (it has to be ActionResult or a derivativ...

So I tried to do like this: <%= Html.TextBox ("textBox", "Value", new { data-myid = m.ID })%> But it ends up as a syntax error. How can I define custom data attributes? EDIT: I see that I can achieve this effect using: <%...
