Display empty textbox using Html.TextBoxFor on a not-null property in an EF entity.
- by hungster
I am using Entity Framework (v4) entities. I have an entity called Car with a Year property of type integer. The Year property does not allow NULL. I have the following in my Create view:
<%= Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.Year) %>
I am required to return a new Car object (due to other requirements) in my HttpGet Create action in the CarController.
Currently, a zero is displayed in the Year textbox because the Year property does not allow NULL. I would like to display an empty textbox in the Create view. How do I do this?
