I am trying to generate input checkbox html using Tag Builder in C#, however, searched everywhere and can't seem to add the disabled field to it, as it doesn't allow the value of the attribute to be null or empty.
Is there an alternative way to add an attribute without value???
var builder = new TagBuilder("input");
var checkedProp = true? "checked" : string.Empty;
var disabled = true? "disabled" : string.Empty;
builder.MergeAttribute("type", "checkbox");
builder.MergeAttribute("name", "yolo");
builder.MergeAttribute("checked", checkedProp);
builder.MergeAttribute(disabled, string.Empty); // failed here
Value cannot be null or an empty string. Parameter name: key Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: System.ArgumentException: Value cannot be null or an empty string.
Is there a more elegant way to add an attribute without value??? Don't want to use if else statement to add the disabled field
Just conditionally call
MergeAttributeand use the string"disabled"to add the attribute.
