Hi everybody,

I have the following EditorFor in the Shared/ EditorTemplates directory:

<div class="editor-label">
    @Html.Label((ViewData.ModelMetadata.DisplayName??ViewData.ModelMetadata.PropertyName),
        new Dictionary<string, object>
            {
                { "for", ViewData.ModelMetadata.PropertyName }
            })
</div>

<div class="editor-field">
    @Html.TextBox("", (object)Model,
        new Dictionary<string, object>
            {
                { "id", ViewData.ModelMetadata.PropertyName },
                { "name", ViewData.ModelMetadata.PropertyName },
                { "class", "text-box single-line"},
                { "data-bind", "value: " + ViewData.ModelMetadata.PropertyName },
            })
    @Html.ValidationMessage(ViewData.ModelMetadata.PropertyName,
        new Dictionary<string, object>
            {
                { "data-valmsg-for", ViewData.ModelMetadata.PropertyName }
            })
</div>

If I type ViewData. I don't get any intellisense, unfortunately :( I am wondering, is there a way to find the type of my model property in this code and if it's numeric type, I want to use my special numeric only textbox class (and input type = "number" - HTML5).

I got this idea http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13984602/how-to-make-entry-field-to-allow-numbers-only-using-ef-and-data-annotations and that's what I was thinking yesterday night also myself, but if I can make this EditorFor smarter, I would not need a UIHint.

Do you know if this is a doable idea or I should go with a separate Editor? Also, in case of the later idea, how can I use input type="number" instead of @Html.TextBox

?

Thanks a lot in advance.
