Question

Im new to Asp.net and MVC. Im trying to do edit function but it throws me an error.
CS1061: ‘System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable’ does not contain a definition for ‘Idx’ and no extension method ‘Idx’ accepting a first argument of type ‘System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable’ could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Code

@model IEnumerable<SealManagementPortal_3._0.Models.VOC_CUSTODIAN>

@{
    ViewBag.Title = "Index";
}

<h2>Index</h2>

<p>
    @Html.ActionLink("Create New", "Create")
</p>
<table>
    <tr>
        <th>
            StaffID
        </th>
        <th>
            Name
        </th>
        <th>
            IC
        </th>
        <th>
            Phone
        </th>
        <th>
            Branch
        </th>
        <th></th>
    </tr>

@foreach (var item in Model) {
    <tr>
        <td>
            @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.StaffId)
        </td>
        <td>
            @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.Name)
        </td>
        <td>
            @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.NRICNo)
        </td>
        <td>
            @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.MobileNo)
        </td>
         <td>
            @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.Branch)
        </td>
        <td>
         @Html.ActionLink("Details", "Details", new { id=Model.Idx }) // error here
         </td>

    </tr>
}

</table>

You’re still referencing the item enumerator. So it needs to be item instead of Model:

 @Html.ActionLink("Details", "Details", new { id = item.Idx })
