    Hi Graham,

    I found you through the codeplex. I am currently having a problem to create a checkboxlist in MVC with MvcContrib.

    Would it be possible for you to help me to create small demo for me?

    @daoming: No problem.

    <%= this.CheckBoxList(x => x.Animals).Id(“AnimalID”).Label(“Selection:”).Options(new MultiSelectList(Model.Animals, “ID”, “Name”)) %>

    Where “Animals” is a collection.

    Hi Graham,

    Thank you for the help.

    But how can we define the the checkbox will be checked, if we read the data from the database?

    Many thanks.

    Daoming.

    I’m not at a location I can debug at, but off the top off my head:

    < %= this.CheckBoxList(x => x.Animals).Id(”AnimalID”).Label(”Selection:”).Options(new MultiSelectList(Model.Animals, “ID”, “Name”, Model.User.SelectedAnimals.Select(x => x.AnimalID))) %>

    Where “User.SelectedAnimals” is the narrowed down list of ‘selected’ animals for each user.

    You may also want “LabelAfter” rather than “Label” to position your checkbox text to a more common location.

    And an example of “Checkbox” only I had laying around:
    < %= this.CheckBox("User.UserRoleMappings[" + i + "].UserRoleID").LabelAfter(userRole.Name).Checked(Model.User.UserRoleMappings.Any(x => x.UserRoleID.Equals(userRole.ID))).Value(userRole.ID)%>

    I might actually do a review on all the controls in FluentHtml, so keep a look out…

    Also check out http://www.stackoverflow.com, there are lots of people there that can help with further MVC/contrib questions.
