How to add class attribute for following situation (Using ReturnUrl only):

@using (Html.BeginForm(new { ReturnUrl = ViewBag.ReturnUrl }))
{
}

I want something like this:

@using (Html.BeginForm(new { ReturnUrl = ViewBag.ReturnUrl }, new { @class = "login-form" })) 
{
}

There is an overload for that, if you supply the controller action, name, and form method.

@using (Html.BeginForm("ActionName", "ControllerName", 
            new { ReturnUrl = ViewBag.ReturnUrl }, 
            FormMethod.Post, new { @class="login-form" }))
{
  etc.
}

The most common use of the method is Html.BeginForm(), therefore, I wish Microsoft would make it possible to call Html.BeginForm( new{ @class="something"}) without the need to care about all other parameters.

Agree it would be nice to only specify htmlAttribute, however you don't have to specify all the params, just the method: Html.BeginForm(FormMethod.Post, new { @class = "something" })

What does the 3rd parameter do? What's up with ReturnUrl?

Html.BeginForm("Index", "EIApplication", FormMethod.Post, new { enctype = "multipart/form-data", **@class = "nea-forms"** })

Or simply using html :

<form action="/ActionName/ControllerName" method="post" class="login-form">

</form>

The question specifically states "Html.BeginForm()"

Also, I'm not sure if this will add the antiforgery token. Just something to keep in mind.
