[c#] asp.net mvc @Html.CheckBoxFor

I have checkboxes in my form

I added at my model

 using System;
 using System.Collections.Generic;
 using System.Linq;
 using System.Web;

 namespace CorePartners_Site2.Models
 {
public class CareerForm
     {
    //....
    public List<CheckBoxes> EmploymentType { get; set; } 
      }
 }

 public class CheckBoxes
 {
     public string Text { get; set; }
     public bool Checked { get; set; }
 }

and added at my form

@Html.CheckBoxFor(model => model.EmploymentType, new { id = "employmentType_1" })
@Html.CheckBoxFor(model => model.EmploymentType, new { id = "employmentType_2" })
@Html.CheckBoxFor(model => model.EmploymentType, new { id = "employmentType_3" })

but I get the mistake

What's wrong?

If only one checkbox should be checked in the same time use RadioButtonFor instead:

      @Html.RadioButtonFor(model => model.Type,1, new { @checked = "checked" }) fultime
      @Html.RadioButtonFor(model => model.Type,2) party
      @Html.RadioButtonFor(model => model.Type,3) next option...

If one more one could be checked in the same time use excellent extension: CheckBoxListFor:

Hope,it will help

Use this code:

@for (int i = 0; i < Model.EmploymentType.Count; i++)
{
    @Html.HiddenFor(m => m.EmploymentType[i].Text)
    @Html.CheckBoxFor(m => m.EmploymentType[i].Checked, new { id = "YourId" })
}

Html.CheckBoxFor expects a Func<TModel, bool> as the first parameter. Therefore your lambda must return a bool, you are currently returning an instance of List<Checkboxes>:

model => model.EmploymentType

You need to iterate over the List<Checkboxes> to output each checkbox:

@for (int i = 0; i < Model.EmploymentType.Count; i++)
{
    @Html.HiddenFor(m => m.EmploymentType[i].Text)
    @Html.CheckBoxFor(m => m.EmploymentType[i].Checked, 
              new { id = string.Format("employmentType_{0}", i) })
}
