Question

Is there a way to get an instance of the Html-Helper within a custom Model-Binder?

E.g.:

public class TranslationModelBinder : DefaultModelBinder
{
    public override object BindModel(ControllerContext controllerContext, ModelBindingContext bindingContext)
    {
       // HtmlHelper helper = new HtmlHelper(?,?);
       object model = base.BindModel(controllerContext, bindingContext);
    }
}

How can I get the two needed arguments?

Thx for any tipps!

Even if you could, it would be wrong.

HtmlHelper is a tool for the view where it renders the Model while the binder does the opposite.
