So I have a for loop in my View that is supposed
to render out the input boxes. Now inside these input boxes I want
to put lables that disappear when you click on them. This is all simple. Now it's probably because my brain was wired for php first, and it has been difficult
to get it
to think in lambdas and object orientation, but I can't figure out how
to do this:
@{ for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++)
{
<div class="editor-label grid_2">User</div>
Model.Users[i].UserFirstName = "First Name";
Model.Users[i].UserLastName = "Last Name";
Model.Users[i].UserEmailAddress = "Email Address";
<div class="grid_10">
@Html.TextBoxFor(m => Model.Users[i].UserFirstName, new { @class = "user-input" })
@Html.TextBoxFor(m => Model.Users[i].UserLastName, new { @class = "user-input" })
@Html.TextBoxFor(m => Model.Users[i].UserEmailAddress, new { @class = "user-input-long" })
@Html.CheckBoxFor(m => Model.Users[i].IsUserAdmin)
<span> admin?</span>
</div>
<div class="clear">
</div>
}
}
And initialize the values for the users.
And you're probably thinking "Of course that won't work. You're going
to get a Null Reference Exception", and you would be correct.
I might need
to initialize them somewhere else and I don't realize it but I'm just not sure. I've tried the [DefaultValue("First Name")] route and that doesn't work.
I'm probably thinking about this wrong, but my brain is already shot from trying
to figure out how
to wire up these events
to the controller, so any help would be appreciated!
