How do I convert DropDownList to DropDownListFor

1.00/5 (1 vote)

See more:

I have a Table with columns: id, name and value in it.
I have a DropDownList in Index.cshtml and it works:

HTML

@Html.DropDownList("ddl0", new SelectList(Model, "value", "name"))

I want to convert this to a "DropDownListFor".
How do I do this and how do I see the result or manipulate it in the "Controller"?

What is the problem that you're facing?

@Html.DropDownListFor(m => m, new SelectList(Model.ddltable, "value", "name"), new { valueNow=??currentvalue?? })

That is the code, not the problem. Is it?
