带RadioButtonFor的ID

Question

I'm trying to deal with radiobutton ids in asp MVC 5

I'm working like this

Example model

class A
{
   public bool? radio { get; set; }
}

and in razor view

@Html.RadioButtonFor(x => x.NeutroBT, Model.NeutroBT, new { @id = "True"})
@Html.RadioButtonFor(x => x.NeutroBT, !Model.NeutroBT, new { @id = "False})

It doesn't cause problem, but I'm working in an editortemplate, and I want it to have generated id , to access in some way like @Html.IdFor(x => x.NeutroBT, true) and @Html.IdFor(x => x.NeutroBT, false) from the other views, just preventing changes in the future

Is some like this possible? I pass a lot of time searching and I didn't get anything similar

If is not possible, what is the best way to deal with it?

thanks!

Answer 1

There is no need to use an id attribute. Instead you can just use the name attribute to select or set the value via javascript (and in any case, @Html.IdFor() will only ever return NeutroBT , not the id that you override in the RadioButtonFor()` method so it cannot be used in your case)

In addition, the 2nd parameter of RadioButtonFor() should be true or false (not Model.NeutroBT and !Model.NeutroBT ).

And to associate a label with the button, you can wrap it in a <label> , for example

<label>
    @Html.RadioButtonFor(x => x.NeutroBT, true, new { id = ""})
    <span>Yes</span>
</label>
<label>
    @Html.RadioButtonFor(x => x.NeutroBT, false, new { id = ""})
    <span>No</span>
</label>

Note that new { id = "" } removes the id attribute and prevents invalid html due to duplicate id attributes.

Then to access the selected value using jQuery

var selectedValue = $('input[name="' + @Html.NameFor(x => x.NeutroBT) + '"]:checked').val();
