I'm trying to subclass ValidationAttribute in ASP.NET MVC 2 to make something along the lines of an ImageValidator class which would make sure that an uploaded image (from <input type="file">) has the correct mimetype, doesn't exceed the maximum allowed file size, etc. So where do I start? I get the feeling like images are an exception ...

I know this question has been asked and answered in several ways, but none of them get to the crux of the matter that I need to understand. In WebForms, we 'subvert' the rendering process and write straight to the Response's output stream. How does one achieve that using a Controller Action, to write CSV to a file for Excel? ...

Yes, I know that in ASP.NET MVC you have to use ViewModels. But I'm tired of writing countless amounts of ViewModel classes. Besides I'd like to just pass the Validation model to the view, instead of that I have to pass the whole ViewModel, so I get ugly code like Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.TopicModel.Title) Instead of Html.TextBoxFor(m...
