The answer is


I've added some code to my project, so it's more convenient.

HtmlExtensions.cs:

namespace System.Web.Mvc.Html
{
    public static class HtmlExtensions
    {
        public static MvcForm BeginForm(this HtmlHelper htmlHelper, string formId)
        {
            return htmlHelper.BeginForm(null, null, FormMethod.Post, new { id = formId });
        }

        public static MvcForm BeginForm(this HtmlHelper htmlHelper, string formId, FormMethod method)
        {
            return htmlHelper.BeginForm(null, null, method, new { id = formId });
        }
    }
}

MySignupForm.cshtml:

@using (Html.BeginForm("signupform")) 
{
    @* Some fields *@
}

In System.Web.Mvc.Html ( in System.Web.Mvc.dll ) the begin form is defined like:- Details

BeginForm ( this HtmlHelper htmlHelper, string actionName, string
controllerName, object routeValues, FormMethod method, object htmlAttributes)

Means you should use like this :

Html.BeginForm( string actionName, string controllerName,object routeValues, FormMethod method, object htmlAttributes)

So, it worked in MVC 4

@using (Html.BeginForm(null, null, new { @id = string.Empty }, FormMethod.Post,
    new { @id = "signupform" }))
{
    <input id="TRAINER_LIST" name="TRAINER_LIST" type="hidden" value="">
    <input type="submit" value="Create" id="btnSubmit" />
}

May be a bit late but in my case i had to put the id in the 2nd anonymous object. This is because the 1st one is for route values i.e the return Url.

@using (Html.BeginForm("Login", "Account", new {  ReturnUrl = ViewBag.ReturnUrl }, FormMethod.Post, new { id = "signupform", role = "form" }))

Hope this can help somebody :)
