ValidationMessageFor with model and html attribute only - MVC 3

Working on a MVC 3 application.

I need to add a class to the validation message html. I mean for span tag.

My Model

 [Required(ErrorMessage = "Role Name is required")]
 [RegularExpression(@"^[a-zA-Z ]+$", 
     ErrorMessage = "Only alphabets and spaces allowed")]
 public string RoleName { get; set; }

Markup

  <label for="name">RoleName</label>
  @Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.RoleName)
  @Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => m.RoleName, "some", 
                           new { @class = "immediate" })

But i could not see overloaded method like @Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => m.RoleName, htmlAttributes) . if i give some text, it is not showing my validaton message entered in model. It always shows that some text only.

Any fix for this?

You should be able to simply pass in null...

@Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => m.RoleName, null, new { @class = "immediate"})
