Select Tag Helper in ASP.NET Core MVC
I need some help with the select tag helper in ASP.NET Core.
I have a list of employees that I'm trying to bind to a select tag helper. My employees are in a List<Employee> EmployeesList
and selected value will go into EmployeeId
property. My view model looks like this:
public class MyViewModel
{
public int EmployeeId { get; set; }
public string Comments { get; set; }
public List<Employee> EmployeesList {get; set; }
}
My employee class looks like this:
public class Employee
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public string FullName { get; set; }
}
My question is how do I tell my select tag helper to use the Id
as the value while displaying FullName
in the drop down list?
<select asp-for="EmployeeId" asp-items="???" />
I'd appreciate some help with this. Thanks.
