Assigning CSS class to Html Helper methods

When we decide to use Html Helper methods we can have a need to assign the CSS class to those methods. We can realize it by using the method argument which can be an object or an IDirectory called htmlAttributes. Assigning the CSS class attribute is pretty easy and we can do it by typing
new { class="myCssClass" }
If you have tried to do this in that way, you would probably noticed that the Visual Studio environment tries to inform you that this kind of the statement is not allowed. It's that because the word "class" interferes with other meaning of this word which is the class definition in C#. To use the above statement anyway we can do this in two ways. The first one is to precede the "class" word with char "@" so the new statement would look like this below.
new { @class="myCssClass" }
The second bases on using the upper letter of "C". I have to mention that this kind of the statement won't be agreeable with the XHTML standards. Below you can find the new working statement.
new { Class="myCssClass" }
