Disable Unobtrusive Validation in MVC ASP.net Project

Question

I need to remove unobtrusive validation in my ASP.net MVC project because I am dynamically creating drop down lists.

I am attempting to use

    @{HtmlHelper.ClientValidationEnabled = false;}

but I get the error "HtmlHelper does not contain a definition for ClientValidationEnabled".

Does anyone know how to fix that or perhaps another solution to this problem? I really only need it disabled for one form.

Try "EnableClientValidation(bool)": https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.web.mvc.htmlhelper.enableclientvalidation?view=aspnet-mvc-5.2 — pcalkins, Jul 30 '21 at 20:38
right in the view methinks... @{ Html.EnableClientValidation(false); } see this thread: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3695186/enable-client-validation-in-razor-views-asp-mvc-3 — pcalkins, Jul 31 '21 at 23:57
@(ViewContext.ClientValidationEnabled = true) is what worked best for me! — Three33Steele, Aug 02 '21 at 12:05
