• Re: Web Forms controls and MVC (again)

  Thanks jrmcoy for your reply. You have said that "it seems that ANY webcontrol can still be used for rendering purposes", but my point is that they actually work for more than just rendering, e.g. I have tested the GridView under ASP.NET MVC and the sorting and selecting work. What I'm wanting to know is why all the explanations I have found on the web say that functionality such as this doesn't work under ASP.NET MVC. Maybe what they mean is that it is not recommended to use this

• Difficulties unit testing code which uses HtmlHelper.ActionList()

  I have started using the HtmlHelper.ActionLink() method in an application (in the middle of some code that generates HTML based on database records) and it works fine, but I want to unit test the code that is using it. Therefore I don't want it to be in the view class, I want it to be in another class that is called by the view class and that is under unit tests. However, in order to construct an instance of the HtmlHelper class for use in the unit tests, I need a ViewContext (I can't see
