[.net] Can I set text box to readonly when using Html.TextBoxFor?

I have the following tag with a Html.TextBoxFor expression and I want the contents to be read only, is this possible?

<%= Html.TextBoxFor(m => Model.Events.Subscribed[i].Action)%>

<%= Html.TextBoxFor(m => Model.Events.Subscribed[i].Action, new { @readonly = true })%>

Use the following:

 @Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.Whatever, new {@readonly = "readonly"})

If you want to assign a class to it you could do it the same way , by adding the @class = "" property. Hope this helps :)

To make it read only

@Html.TextBoxFor(m=> m.Total, new {@class ="form-control", @readonly="true"})

To diable

@Html.TextBoxFor(m=> m.Total, new {@class ="form-control", @disabled="true"})

The following snippet worked for me.

@Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.Crown, new { id = "", @style = "padding-left:5px", @readonly = "true" }) 

In case if you have to apply your custom class you can use

  @Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.Birthday,   new Dictionary<string, object>() { {"readonly", "true"}, {"class", "commonField"} } )

Where are

commonField is CSS class

and Birthday could be string field that you probably can use to keep jQuery Datapicker date :)

<script>
             $(function () {
                 $("#Birthday").datepicker({

                 });
             });
  </script>

That's a real life example.

In fact the answer of Brain Mains is almost correct:

@Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.RIF, new { value = @Model.RIF, @readonly = true })

An other possibility :

<%= Html.TextBoxFor(model => Model.SomeFieldName, new Dictionary<string, object>(){{"disabled", "true"}}) %>

You can also disabled TextBoxFor

@Html.TextBoxFor(x=>x.day, null, new { @class = "form-control success" ,@disabled="disabled" })

By setting readonly attribute to either true or false is not going to work in most browsers, I have done it as below, when the mode of the page is "reload", I've not included "readonly" attribute.

@if(Model.Mode.Equals("edit")){
@Html.TextAreaFor(model => Model.Content.Data, new { id = "modEditor", @readonly = moduleEditModel.Content.ReadOnly, @style = "width:99%; height:360px;" })
}
@if (Model.Mode.Equals("reload")){
@Html.TextAreaFor(model => Model.Content.Data, new { id = "modEditor", @style = "width:99%; height:360px;" })}

This work for me...

@Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.RIF, new { value = @Model.RIF, @readonly = "readonly" })

<%: Html.TextBoxFor(m => Model.Events.Subscribed[i].Action, new { @autocomplete = "off", @readonly=true})%>

This is how you set multiple properties

   @Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.IdUsuario, new { @Value = "" + User.Identity.GetUserId() + "", @disabled = "true" })

@disabled = "true"

Work very well

<%= Html.TextBoxFor(m => Model.Events.Subscribed[i].Action, new {readonly=true})%>

Using the example of @Hunter, in the new { .. } part, add readonly = true, I think that will work.
