We use use [HTML](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/1530/design-a-simple-stylish-calculator-using-html-css-and-javascript) helpers for render HTML controls in the view. In this example we will use “HTML.TextBoxFor” is strongly typed while “HTML.TextBox” isn’t. Below is a simple HTML code which just creates a simple textbox with “StudentCode” as name.

```
Html.TextBox("StudentName")
```

Below is “**Html.TextBoxFor”** code which creates HTML textbox using the property name ‘**StudentCode**” from object “**m**”.\

```
Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.StudentName)
```

In the same way we have for other HTML controls like for **checkbox** we have “**Html.CheckBox**” and “**Html.CheckBoxFor**”.
