  1. POASP.NET MVC model binder not parsing ISO DateTime correctly
    text
    copied!<p>I've been trying to post a form to my controller:</p> <pre><code>Id=0&amp;ReportDate=2010-08-09T00%3A00%3A00&amp;SampleText=Save </code></pre> <p>That's the XHR post that is sent, my controller picks up all the properties except ReportDate, instead setting it to the .NET epoch DateTime. Any ideas?</p> <p>Edit: If I set another variable, <code>ReportDateString</code>, send the string to the controller and do a <code>DateTime.Parse()</code>, it works fine. However, I'd really like to be able to bind the DateTime directly as this feels hacky.</p> <p>Edit 2: Hereis my controller code:</p> <pre><code>public void CreateTest(MyObject myObject) { myObjectRepository.Update(rootObject); } </code></pre> <p>And my object:</p> <pre><code>public class MyObject { public int Id { get; set; } public string SampleText{ get; set; } public DateTime ReportDate { get; set; } } </code></pre> <p>If I set a debug, I can see that the model binder successfully binds all the properties on my post except the DateTime which it sets to the epoch date.</p> <p>Edit 3: Form:</p> <pre><code>&lt;form id="testform" method="post"&gt; &lt;input type="hidden" name="Id" value="0" /&gt; &lt;input type="hidden" name="ReportDate" value="2010-08-09T00-00-00" /&gt; &lt;input type="text" name="SampleText" value="Test"/&gt; &lt;button id="saveButton"&gt;Save&lt;/button&gt; &lt;/form&gt; </code></pre> <p>Javascript:</p> <pre><code>$('#saveButton')live('click', function(e) { $.post('CreateTest', $('#testform').serialize()) }); </code></pre>
