Prevent MVC 4 to add "type" and "data-val-" attribut on html tags

Those are added automatically by the HTML helpers you are using.

You have three options:

1) Create your own HTML helper that doesn't add data-val

2) user jQuery to remove data-val attributes from the inputs you want

http://api.jquery.com/removeAttr/

3) Simply don't use HTML helpers and create the input tag yourself
