Question

i am currently trying to get data from a form in a view to my controller, i’m sending it a list of object and my goal is to get the one that have been modified by having multiple form. The probleme here is that i don’t get anything back from the view, just null values.

@model List<Connection_User>

@for (int i = 0; i < Model.Count ; i++)
{
using(Html.BeginForm("DBLogin","User", FormMethod.Post, new { autocomplete ="off"}))
{
    <fieldset>

    <div class="editor-label">
        @ConsoleV2.Resources.Strings.Name
    </div>
    <div class="editor-field">
        @Html.TextBoxFor(model => model[i].Username)
        @Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model[i].Username)
    </div>

    <div class="editor-label">
        @ConsoleV2.Resources.Strings.Password
    </div>
    <div class="editor-field">
        @Html.PasswordFor(model => model[i].Password)
        @Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model[i].Password)
    </div>   
    <p>
        <input type="submit" value="@ConsoleV2.Resources.Strings.Valid" />
    </p>
    </fieldset>
}
}

and the prototype of my method in the controller is

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult DBLogin(Connection_User Logins)
{


        return new EmptyResult();
}

Thanks in advance for your help.

Try foreach instead of for

@foreach(var modelItem in Model)
{
using(Html.BeginForm("DBLogin","User", FormMethod.Post, new { autocomplete ="off"}))
{
    <fieldset>

    <div class="editor-label">
        @ConsoleV2.Resources.Strings.Name
    </div>
    <div class="editor-field">
        @Html.TextBoxFor(item => modelItem.Username)
        @Html.ValidationMessageFor(item => modelItem.Username)
    </div>

    <div class="editor-label">
        @ConsoleV2.Resources.Strings.Password
    </div>
    <div class="editor-field">
        @Html.PasswordFor(item => modelItem.Password)
        @Html.ValidationMessageFor(item=> modelItem.Password)
    </div>   
    <p>
        <input type="submit" value="@ConsoleV2.Resources.Strings.Valid" />
    </p>
    </fieldset>
}
}
