Add custom class to @Html.DropDownListFor Asp.net Razor MVC

Question

I want to add custom class to Asp.net Razor MVC control @Html.DropDownListFor

I have following code

@Html.DropDownListFor(model => model.is_admin, new SelectList(
            new List<Object>{ 
                new { value = "true" , text = "Admin"  },  
                new { value = "false" , text = "User"  },                                               
             },                    
             "value",
             "text",
              "false" ))

How can this same control be implemented in Asp.net MVC 5

Answer 1

Add a third parameter called htmlAttributes like following.

@Html.DropDownListFor(model => model.is_admin,
       new SelectList(
           new List<Object>{
               new { value = "true" , text = "Admin"  },
               new { value = "false" , text = "User"  },

            }, "value", "text", "false"),
       new { @class = "your_class_name" });
