Replace "data-val-" on TextBoxFor not working

[speshulk926]

What I am trying to achieve is to replace the default error message with a database driven error message. I created this same method to make all of my text, labels, static text, etc dynamic and it all works great. When I try to use the .Data() or .HtmlAttributes() it will not overwrite the data-val- objects. Model["validation.name.required"] translates to "Name is required." instead of "The Name field is required."

You can recreate it this way:

This works using standard TextBoxFor - Html.TextBoxFor(x => x.Name, new { data_val_required = Model["validation.name.required"], @class="form-control" }), Html.ValidationMessageFor(x => x.Name)

Output: <input name="Name" class="form-control" id="Name" type="text" value="" data-val-required="Name is required." data-val="true" data-val-length-max="50" data-val-length="The field Name must be a string with a maximum length of 50.">

This does not work - @:@form.FormGroup().TextBoxFor(x => x.Name).Data(new { val_required = Model["validation.Name.required"]}).Placeholder(Model["placeholder.Name"]).ShowValidationMessage(true).Label().LabelText(Model["label.Name"])

Nor does this - @:@form.FormGroup().TextBoxFor(x => x.Name).HtmlAttributes(new { data_val_required = Model["validation.Name.required"]}).Placeholder(Model["placeholder.Name"]).ShowValidationMessage(true).Label().LabelText(Model["label.Name"])

Output for both that do not work is the same: <input name="Name" class="form-control input-validation-error" id="Name" type="text" placeholder="Enter your name, please" value="" data-val-required="The Name field is required." data-val="true" data-val-length-max="50" data-val-length="The field Name must be a string with a maximum length of 50.">

This should be fixed. Please get latest and let me know if it worked fine for you.

Works as expected now. Thanks for the insanely fast fix and update as usual! =D
