Model binding

In my previous post I discussed how values sent from the browser are bound to objects in the action methods of a controller. If binding is not working as expected you need to examine the html element names and the types you are binding to, I showed how the FormCollection can be of help in this regard.

Sending values from an MVC view to a controller works very well when you are binding back to the same model/viewmodel you populated the view with. But when you start trying to do something a little different, it’s not so obvious or straightforward.
