I have this problem with a viewmodel, when the view is posted I'm getting null values for all the properties.
I've researched a bit, I can see multiple ppl have this problem, I tried some of the solutions but none of them works for me.
This is what I have:
Viewmodel:
public class EventViewModel
{
public projectEvent ProjectEvent { get; set; }
public List<eventType> eventTypes { get; set; }
}
Controller:
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult AddEditEvent(int? id)
{
var eventViewModel = new EventViewModel();
var projectEventModel = new projectEvent();
if (id != null)
{
using (var db = new DBEntities())
{
projectEventModel = (from p in db.projectEvents
where p.eventID == id
select p).FirstOrDefault();
}
}
eventViewModel.ProjectEvent = projectEventModel;
using (var db = new DBEntities())
{
eventViewModel.eventTypes = (from p in db.eventTypes
select p).ToList();
}
return View(eventViewModel);
}
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult AddEditEvent(EventViewModel projectEvent)
{
if (ModelState.IsValid)
{
using (var db = new DBEntities())
{
db.projectEvents.AddOrUpdate(projectEvent);
db.SaveChanges();
}
}
return RedirectToAction("Events");
}
View:
@model TTB.ViewModels.EventViewModel
@{
Layout = "~/Views/Shared/_Layout_Main.cshtml";
}
<h2>Add/Edit Event</h2>
@using (Html.BeginForm("AddEditEvent", "Admin"))
{
<div class="container">
<div class="col-md-8">
<div class="form-group">
<label for="name">Name</label>
@Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.ProjectEvent.eventName, new { @class = "form-control" })
@Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => m.ProjectEvent.eventName)
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="name">Date</label>
@Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.ProjectEvent.eventDate, new { @class = "form-control" })
@Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => m.ProjectEvent.eventDate)
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="name">Event Type</label>
@Html.DropDownListFor(v => v.ProjectEvent.eventType, new SelectList(Model.eventTypes, "eventTypeID", "eventTypeName"), new { @class = "form-control dropdown" })
</div>
@Html.HiddenFor(m => m.ProjectEvent.eventID)
</div>
<div class="col-md-8">
<input type="submit" class="btn btn-success btn-lg btnSaveEdit" value="Save" />
</div>
</div>
}
What am I doing wrong?
