POModelState.IsValid fails to validate!

Body
copied!<p>So I have a simple class which I use to send a Contact Form email. </p> <pre><code>public class EnquiryEmail : Entity { [DataType(DataType.Text)] [Required(ErrorMessage = "Name is a required field")] [StringLength(100, ErrorMessage = "Must be under 100 characters")] public virtual string Name { get; set; } [DisplayName("Tel")] [DataType(DataType.PhoneNumber)] [StringLength(20, ErrorMessage = "Must be under 20 characters")] public virtual string Tel { get; set; } [DataType(DataType.EmailAddress)] [Required(ErrorMessage = "Email is a required field")] [RegularExpression(@"\w+([-+.']\w+)*@\w+([-.]\w+)*\.\w+([-.]\w+)*", ErrorMessage = "Valid Email Address is required.")] [StringLength(100, ErrorMessage = "Must be under 100 characters")] public virtual string Email { get; set; } [DataType(DataType.MultilineText)] [Required(ErrorMessage = "Enquiry is a required field")] public virtual string Enquiry { get; set; } } </code></pre> <p>The above is my class and my controller is as follows </p> <pre><code>[AcceptVerbs(HttpVerbs.Post)] public ActionResult Enquiry(EnquiryEmail model) { if (ModelState.IsValid) { //Send a Email to Admin!! if (ForSale.Core.Email.EnquiryEmail(model)) { return new JsonResult { Data = new { Success = true } }; } } return new JsonResult { Data = new { Success = false } }; } </code></pre> <p>For some reason the ModelState.IsValid returns as true even though I can look into my EnquiryEmail object and see the nulls against values which have a "Required" validation against them.</p> <p>Look into the ModelState.IsValid shows the 4 values -the Nulls are actually displayed as empty strings under the property named "AttemptedValues". which im not sure if thats a problem here or just a thing ModeState does!</p> <p>Either way its not validating correctly. Any Ideas what it could be?</p>
