Autofocus on EditorFor

Question

I would like to autofocus on an editorfor in my application, but I can\'t seem to do that. I have successfully used autofocus on a textbox, but I would like to use an editor

Answer 1

You put the autofocus attribute in the wrong spot.

@Html.EditorFor(model => model.Description, 
     new { htmlAttributes = new { @class = "form-control" }, autofocus = "" })

Try this instead:

@Html.EditorFor(model => model.Description, 
     new { htmlAttributes = new { @class = "form-control", autofocus = "" } })
