    copied!<p>Here is my model:</p> <pre><code> public string CustomerNumber { get; set; } public string ShipMethod { get; set; } public string ContactPerson { get; set; } public string ShipToName { get; set; } public string Address1 { get; set; } public string Address2 { get; set; } public string Address3{ get; set; } public string City { get; set; } public string State { get; set; } public string ZipCode { get; set; } </code></pre> <p>Here part of my view:</p> <pre><code> &lt;table class="table table-condensed"&gt; &lt;thead&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;Customer Number&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;Ship Method&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;Contact Person&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;Ship to Name&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;Address 1&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;Address 2&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;Address 3&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;City&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;State&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;Zip&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/thead&gt; &lt;tbody&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;@Html.LabelFor(x =&gt; x.CustomerNumber, Model.CustomerNumber)&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;@Html.LabelFor(x =&gt; x.ShipMethod, Model.ShipMethod)&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;@Html.LabelFor(x =&gt; x.ContactPerson, Model.ContactPerson)&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;@Html.LabelFor(x =&gt; x.ShipToName, Model.ShipToName)&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;@Html.LabelFor(x =&gt; x.Address1, Model.Address1)&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;@Html.LabelFor(x =&gt; x.Address2, Model.Address2)&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;@Html.LabelFor(x =&gt; x.Address3, Model.Address3)&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;@Html.LabelFor(x =&gt; x.City, Model.City)&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;@Html.LabelFor(x =&gt; x.State, Model.State)&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;@Html.LabelFor(x =&gt; x.ZipCode, Model.ZipCode)&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/tbody&gt; &lt;/table&gt; </code></pre> <p>The data gets displayed in the view correctly, but when a post happens on my page, the data comes back null. I need the data in those LabelFors to be sent back to my controller, so I dont have to store it in a session. I thought MVC was supposed to bind to your model automagically with the labelfors. What am I doing wrong?</p> <p><strong>EDIT</strong> </p> <p>I guess the reason I asked this question, is because I just moved from webforms to MVC, and I am pretty lost without the viewstate. I figured if the values in my model kept posting back to me from the view, I wouldn't have to store my model in a session object. On my page, I need to be able to persist my model during page cycles, so I can store my model data into some sql tables after the user clicks the save button. What are some options to persist your model in MVC?</p>
