Howdy,
I am wanting to create a helper for an mvc project I am working on. If you think of a form that requires a persons DOB. I am wanting to 3 textboxes, one for each of the fields.
How is my best way to achieve this, do I create an editor template or do I need to create a full helper for this?
Any tips would be great!
Thank you
If the person’s DOB is a datetime, This is how I would approach this:
If I want every DateTime editor (through the whole application) to be created as 3 textboxes I’d use an Editor Template. However, I’d bet this is probably not true, as it’s probably true that you’ll need different editors for datetimes (say a jquery datepicker or something), so I’d go with a Html Helper.
BTW I would reconsider using 3 textboxes and would use something like a jquery ui datepicker.
