How to set width of html.textboxfor?

Question

I have a <%= Html.TextBoxFor(user => user.Name) %> and it has standart width.

What should I do to make textbox wider?

Answer 1

You can do this to add a CSS class called singleTextBox, and then you can assign a width in your style sheet:

<%= Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.UserName, new { @class = "singleTextBox" }) %>

In your style sheet:

.singleTextBox {
    width: 12em;
}
