In my view model if have a:
List<Car>
where car has an Id and a name. I want to create a dropdown box using
Html.DropDownListFor()
what is the best way to hook this up as i want to have the value of the item be the Id and the display to be the Name of the Car.
What s in your view model,
to display the list you want you would use
<%= Html.DropDownList("DropDownName", new SelectList(yourListOfCar, "Id", "Name"))%>
so if you want to use DropDownListFor, you would use is like this
<%= Html.DropDownList(model => model.IdCar, new SelectList(yourListOfCar, "Id", "UserName"))%>
where model is your view model
