Question

I have a form that on submit doesn’t reach the controller method (I put a breakpoint there)

    [HttpPost]
    public ActionResult SaveBilling( FormCollection fc )
    {
...
}

the frontend code is something like this

<form action="/PersonSettings/SaveBilling" method="post" >
...
<input type='submit' value="save" />
</form>

any ideas ?

not sure if it is a route handler problem because it does reach the GET version if i go to /PersonSettings/SaveBilling in browser but the post method just yields a blank page and doesnt go into the code

Turns out it was a routing related issue after all , I have some complex routes and the default mvc route was catching things that should have gone through the default mvc route with areas.

Was able to recreate the issue by having explicit parameters for my function instead of a formcollection, so that might have been the issue ohwell.
