Question

I’m trying to make some changes in an Visual Studio 2008 MVC 1 code, and as I have just dealt so far with MVC 3, by the way far from beeing a beginner, I’m struggling with this problem:

Giving I have a viewmodel like this, where putting the List inside the User class itself seems to me nonsense.

    public class Register {
      public User User { get; set; }
      public List<Options> Options{ get; set; }
    }

Would anyone tell me how, in MVC 1, in a view strong typed with the previous model could I access the User properties, ie I’m trying for example

    <div class ="row">
        <label>Mobile telephone</label>
        <%= Html.TextBox("Model.User.MobileTel")%>
    </div>

but it doesn’t populate the fields when reaching the post method in the controller.

Thanks in advance

Remove the “Model.” from the name.

<%= Html.TextBox("User.MobileTel") %>

or

<%= Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.User.MobileTel) %>
