Hey there,

I'm trying to create a form using ASP.NET MVC (3). The view uses the Razor engine. I'm trying to add a data attribute to the Form tag :

C#

@using (Html.BeginForm("passwordchange", "account", FormMethod.Post, new { @class = "async", data-success = "account.passwordChangeSuccessfull();" }))

However the engine does not accept the 'minus' sign in the data-success attribute. How can I add such an attribute?

Thanks a lot!

Oh wow,

I just found the answer somewhere online. You need to replace the 'minus' with an underscore.

@using (Html.BeginForm("passwordchange", "account", FormMethod.Post, new { @class = "async", data_success = "account.passwordChangeSuccessfull();" }))

This will do the trick!
