How to get rid of CSS classes generated in Content Area

We're using EPiServer CMS 8.0 and using MVC. I noticed that EPiServer generates wrapping divs in Content Area including the blocks:

block

I really don't mind the extra divs but what I want to get rid of is the CSS in block's wrapping divs. I tried the following code:

@Html.PropertyFor(m => m.BannerContentArea, new { ChildrenCssClass = "" })

but it doesn't work.

Hi,

Looks like you have your custom ContentAreaRenderer. Default ContentAreaRenderer don't add classes.

AlloyContentAreaRenderer from AlloyMVC generate html as your example.

To get rid of wrapping `div` element you can use following code:

@Html.PropertyFor (m => m.BannerContentArea, new { "hascontainer" = false })

Or actually you can rely on some built-in constants as well:

RenderSettings.HasContainerElement

I ended up creating a custom Content Area renderer http://wrzyciel.pl/force-episerver7-to-not-add-empty-divs-for-contentareas/
