Question

What option do I need to set to make a drop down box readonly when using MVCs Html.DropDownList?

I\'ve tried things like....

Html.DropDownList(\"Type         


        

Answer 1

Or you can try something like this:

Html.DropDownList("Types", Model.Types, new { @readonly = "true" })

Answer 2

Html.DropDownList("Types", Model.Types, new { @disabled = "disabled" }) @Html.Hidden(Model.Types) and for save and recover the data, use a hidden control
