title: How are you meant to use Prompt, Description, Ordering when applying data-annotations in ASP.NET MVC 3
body: <p>I have a view model with a property on it that looks like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>    [Display(Name = "Some Property", Description = "This is description", Prompt = "This is prompt")]
      [Required(ErrorMessage = RequiredFieldMessage)]
      public string SomeProperty { get; set; }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But this does not seem to render anything extra in the view. Do you need to do some additional work?</p>
  
  <pre><code>    &lt;div class="editor-label"&gt;
          @Html.LabelFor(model =&gt; model.SomeProperty )
      &lt;/div&gt;
      &lt;div class="editor-field"&gt;
          @Html.TextAreaFor(model =&gt; model.SomeProperty , 5, 80, null)
          @Html.ValidationMessageFor(model =&gt; model.SomeProperty )
      &lt;/div&gt;
  </code></pre>
