Question

im trying to get the values of all the checked checkboxes and post those values(integer) to an action result, the problem is i get an empty array at the controller side …
my jquery code is as follow:

 function getIds() {

        var idList = new Array();
        var loopCounter = 0;
        //find all the checked checkboxes
        $("input:checked").each
    (
      function() {

          //fill the array with the values
          idList[loopCounter] = $(this).val();
          loopCounter += 1;
      }
    );
      //Send the list off
      alert(idList);
      var postData = { values: idList };    

      $.post("/Admin/Delete/", postData);
    }

my controller side code is following

[AcceptVerbs(HttpVerbs.Post)]
        public ActionResult Delete(Int32[] values)
        {
            try
            {
                // TODO: Add delete logic here

                return RedirectToAction("NewSubDashboard");
            }
            catch
            {
                return View();
            }
        }

there is no problem with the posting but im gettin an empty array at the controller side…

Answer 1

i extracted the values from httpcontext as

HttpContext ctx = System.Web.HttpContext.Current;
string[] ValArr = ctx.Request.Params.GetValues(0);
