How do I add the css class attribute to a textbox in razor?

Question

I have tried:

@Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.UserName, new {@class='textbox'})

which isn't working.

@Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.UserName, new {@class="textbox"})

A c# string literal does not take single quotes.

'textbox' -> "textbox"

You'r so right.. I blame it on the later hour... Shouldn't be coding in the middle of the night. Even the exception messages was telling me this (mayby in a more cryptic way) – Magnus Gladh Oct 24 '10 at 07:35

For multiple classes e.g... @Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.UserName, new {@class="textbox, anotherClass"}) – CYoung Sep 30 '16 at 01:20
