In this article we will learn how to bind a check box list in ASP.Net MVC, which will be used to choose multiple records. So let's start with step by step.
Step 1 : Create an ASP.NET MVC Application
Now let us start with a step-by-step approach from the creation of a simple MVC application as in the following:
- "Start", then "All Programs" and select "Microsoft Visual Studio 2015".
- "File", then "New" and click "Project..." then select "ASP.NET Web Application Template", then provide the Project a name as you wish and click on OK .
Step 2 : Add Model class
Right click on model folder of created MVC application project and add class named CheckBoxModel.cs
CheckBoxModel.cs
public class CheckBoxModel { public int Value { get; set; } public string Text { get; set; } public bool IsChecked { get; set; } } public class CheckBoxList { public List<CheckBoxModel> CheckBoxItems { get; set; } }
Step 3 : Add Controller
Right click on Controllers folder of created MVC application and add Controller named HomeController.cs
HomeController.cs
public class HomeController : Controller { // GET: Home public ActionResult Index() { //Creating object of CheckBoxList model class CheckBoxList ChkItems = new CheckBoxList(); //Additng items to the list List<CheckBoxModel> ChkItem = new List<CheckBoxModel>() { new CheckBoxModel {Value=1,Text="ASP.NET",IsChecked=true }, new CheckBoxModel {Value=1,Text="C#",IsChecked=false }, new CheckBoxModel {Value=1,Text="MVC",IsChecked=false }, new CheckBoxModel {Value=1,Text="Web API" ,IsChecked=false}, new CheckBoxModel {Value=1,Text="SignalR",IsChecked=false }, new CheckBoxModel {Value=1,Text="SQL" ,IsChecked=false}, }; //assigning records to the CheckBoxItems list ChkItems.CheckBoxItems = ChkItem; return View(ChkItems); } }
Step 3: Add View
Right click on the View folder of the created MVC application project and add an empty view named Index.cshtml. Now open the Index.cshtml view and write the following code into the view.
@model BindCheckBoxListInMVC.Models.CheckBoxList
@{
ViewBag.Title = "www.compilemode.com";
}
<div class="form-horizontal">
<h4>Select your favourite Subjects</h4>
@foreach (var item in Model.CheckBoxItems)
{
<input id="chk@(item.Value)"
type="checkbox"
value="@item.Value"
checked="@item.IsChecked" />
@item.Text <br />
}
</div>Now everything is ready ,run the application and the check box list will look like as follows .
From all the above examples, we have learned how to bind a check box list in ASP.Net MVC.
