Question

Step 1:

I’m using a dropdown to display company locations. The list comes from the Location table.

Step 2:

While the user is registering, the dropdown list will show the locations in question.

When the user selects India, then this value (Location Name) should store in the UserLogin Table.

How can I read the value from the dropdown in ASP.Net MVC 3?

Answer 1

It depends how you are getting values of your form if you are passing formcollection then simply you can access its value by this

public ActionResult MyAction (FormCollection form)
    {
        string value = form["DropDownListName"];
    }

Or you can access it through

string value = Request.Form["DropDownListName"];
