  1. POMVC4 - form doesn't show new model values
    text
    copied!<p>I have a controller with 2 actions: 1 for displaying a form and 2nd for processing the submitted form. Smth like this:</p> <pre><code>public ActionResult Create() { TestModel model = new TestModel() { Value1 = "aaa" }; return View(model); } [HttpPost] public ActionResult Create(TestModel model) { model.Value2 = "bbb"; return View(model); } </code></pre> <p>As you can see I pre-populate Value1 with "aaa" so it appears on the form - this part works fine. However, when I submit the form I would like to fill other properties of the model object and re-display the form using the same view.</p> <p>The problem is that on submit the form still displays the original model object and not the updated one i.e. only Value1 is populated with "aaa" and Value2 is empty.</p> <p>The view I use is the Auto-generated one by scaffolding option:</p> <pre><code>@using (Html.BeginForm()) { @Html.AntiForgeryToken() @Html.ValidationSummary(true) &lt;fieldset&gt; &lt;legend&gt;TestModel&lt;/legend&gt; &lt;div class="editor-label"&gt; @Html.LabelFor(model =&gt; model.Value1) &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="editor-field"&gt; @Html.EditorFor(model =&gt; model.Value1) @Html.ValidationMessageFor(model =&gt; model.Value1) &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="editor-label"&gt; @Html.LabelFor(model =&gt; model.Value2) &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="editor-field"&gt; @Html.EditorFor(model =&gt; model.Value2) @Html.ValidationMessageFor(model =&gt; model.Value2) &lt;/div&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;input type="submit" value="Save" /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;/fieldset&gt; </code></pre> <p>}</p>
