Namespace:  System.Web.Mvc.Html
Assembly:  System.Web.Mvc (in System.Web.Mvc.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
<ExtensionAttribute> _
Public Shared Function TextArea ( _
    htmlHelper As HtmlHelper, _
    name As String, _
    htmlAttributes As Object _
) As MvcHtmlString
public static MvcHtmlString TextArea(
    this HtmlHelper htmlHelper,

)
[ExtensionAttribute]
public:
static MvcHtmlString^ TextArea(
    HtmlHelper^ htmlHelper, 
    String^ name, 
    Object^ htmlAttributes
)

Parameters

  • htmlAttributes
    Type: System.Object
    An object that contains the HTML attributes to set for the element.

Return Value

Type: System.Web.Mvc.MvcHtmlString
The textarea element.

Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type HtmlHelper. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).

Remarks

The difference between calling the TextArea method and using a textarea element is that the TextArea method is designed to make it easy to bind to view data or model data.

The htmlAttributes parameter consists of an object that contains name/value pairs. The attributes that are specified in the name/value pairs depend on the HTML element that is being rendered. For example, for a textarea element, you might provide the following anonymous object:

new {id = "textarea1", cols="20", rows="5", wrap="virtual"}
New With {.id = "textarea1", .cols="20", .rows="5", .wrap="virtual"}
