I would like to make a layout page based on the view shown below, with the content in the div with class "form-group" inserted in the resulting content pages. Or better yet, I'd like to make all the values after the "asp-for" and "asp-validation-for" tag helpers variable in each content page. Each content page would also have to contain a different model at the top. All this would help tremendously in my quest to make this a "DRY" project. Any hints?
PROPOSED LAYOUT PAGE:
@RenderBody()
@{await Html.RenderPartialAsync("_BeginAllPartial").ConfigureAwait(false); }<form asp-area=@ViewBag.Area asp-controller=@ViewBag.Controller asp-action=@ViewBag.Action asp-route-returnurl=@ViewData["ReturnUrl"] method="post" class="form-horizontal"><input type="hidden" asp-for="ID" />
@{await Html.RenderPartialAsync("_FormBeginPartial").ConfigureAwait(false); }<div class="form-group"><div class="form-inline"><label asp-for=@RenderSection("ctrl01Label", required: true) class="control-label col-md-3"></label><input asp-for=@RenderSection("ctrl01Input", required: true) class="form-control col-md-offset-1 col-md-4" autofocus tabindex="10" /></div></div>
@{await Html.RenderPartialAsync("_FormEndPartial").ConfigureAwait(false); }</form>
@{await Html.RenderPartialAsync("_EndAllPartial").ConfigureAwait(false); }
PROPOSED CONTENT PAGE:
@model InstructionalMaterialViewModel
@Layout="_CreateEditLayout"
@section ctrl01Label{"Isbn"}
@section ctrl01Input{"Isbn"}Following is the error I get; I also find it strange that the term "section" didn't Intellisense for me.
