  1. POASP.NET MVC 1 custom model on registration page, confirm password not getting populated
    text
    copied!<p>I've been playing around with the default MVC 1 site, adding some fields to the registration section that are used to create a secondary object in the database at sign up time.</p> <p>I've created the view model including the username, email, password and passwordConfirm properties, along with a few others. I then added the type to the inherits attribute on the register page, and in the controller, added a new instance of the model to the ViewData.Model property. </p> <p>The problem is, when i POST the model back to the server, the passwordConfirm property is always null, no matter what i enter. The password property, is filled in correctly, as are all the other properties. </p> <p>Is there something special that has to be done to get the passwordConfirm value to get passed?</p> <p>Here is the relevant code:</p> <p>RegistrationViewModel.cs:</p> <pre><code>public class RegistrationViewModel { public string UserName { get; set; } public string Password { get; set; } public string PasswordConfirm { get; set; } public string Email { get; set; } public string FirstName { get; set; } public string LastName { get; set; } public string DisplayName { get; set; } public string Address1 { get; set; } public string Address2 { get; set; } public string City { get; set; } public string State { get; set; } public string Zip { get; set; } public string HomePhone { get; set; } public string CellPhone { get; set; } public string OtherPhone { get; set; } public string Twitter { get; set; } public string Bio { get; set; } public string DOB { get; set; } } </code></pre> <p>AccountController.cs:</p> <pre><code>public ActionResult Register() { ViewData.Model = new RegistrationViewModel(); ViewData["PasswordLength"] = MembershipService.MinPasswordLength; return View(); } </code></pre> <p>Register.aspx:</p> <pre><code>&lt;% using (Html.BeginForm()) { %&gt; &lt;div&gt; &lt;fieldset&gt; &lt;legend&gt;Account Information&lt;/legend&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;label for="firstname"&gt;First Name:&lt;/label&gt; &lt;%= Html.TextBox("firstname", Model.FirstName) %&gt; &lt;%= Html.ValidationMessage("firstname") %&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;label for="lastname"&gt;Last Name:&lt;/label&gt; &lt;%= Html.TextBox("lastname", Model.LastName) %&gt; &lt;%= Html.ValidationMessage("lastname") %&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;label for="username"&gt;Username:&lt;/label&gt; &lt;%= Html.TextBox("username", Model.UserName) %&gt; &lt;%= Html.ValidationMessage("username") %&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;label for="email"&gt;Email:&lt;/label&gt; &lt;%= Html.TextBox("email", Model.Email) %&gt; &lt;%= Html.ValidationMessage("email") %&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;label for="zipcode"&gt;Zip Code:&lt;/label&gt; &lt;%= Html.TextBox("zip", Model.Zip) %&gt; &lt;%= Html.ValidationMessage("zip") %&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;label for="password"&gt;Password:&lt;/label&gt; &lt;%= Html.Password("password", Model.Password) %&gt; &lt;%= Html.ValidationMessage("password") %&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;label for="confirmPassword"&gt;Confirm password:&lt;/label&gt; &lt;%= Html.Password("confirmPassword",Model.PasswordConfirm) %&gt; &lt;%= Html.ValidationMessage("confirmPassword") %&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;input type="submit" value="Register" /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;/fieldset&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;% } %&gt; </code></pre>
