It\'s possible to add a HTML title attribute to an input tag like so:
title
@Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.Name, new { title = \"Customer name\" }) >
If you are using @HTML.DisplayFor(model=>model.CustomerName) It will render as text, It will not shows any tag inside the values.
If you want to bind the "DisplayFor" using span , Use the below tag,
@Html.DisplayFor(model=>model.CustomerName)
