    data
    text
    <p>I have a standard asp.net mvc 4 view with a form that has some editable fields, including a DataTime selection. When the form is posted back to the controller, the DateTime always shows up as the minimum value for DateTime 1/1/0001, even though a valid date is successfully sent to the client or selected on the client.</p> <p>I'm guessing the DefaultModelBinding is messing this up, but I'm not sure why or how. In my web.config I have the following for globalization:</p> <pre><code>&lt;globalization enableClientBasedCulture="true" uiCulture="auto" culture="auto"/&gt; </code></pre> <p>Here is my ActionResult in the controller that receives the post:</p> <pre><code>[HttpPost] public virtual ActionResult Edit(KBUser kbuser) { if (this.ModelState.IsValid) { //save the user m_userRepo.UpdateUser(kbuser); return RedirectToAction(MVC.Users.Index()); } else { return View(kbuser); } } </code></pre> <p>Here is the relevant part of the View:</p> <pre><code>@model KBMaxLive.Domain.KBUser @using (Html.BeginForm("Edit", "User", new { idUser = Request["idUser"] }, FormMethod.Post, new { id = "form" })) { &lt;fieldset&gt; &lt;legend&gt;@Engine.Resources.KBMaxLive.Account&lt;/legend&gt; &lt;div class="field-column-container"&gt; &lt;div class="field-column"&gt; &lt;div class="field-container"&gt; @Html.LabelFor(u =&gt; u.CreatedDate) @Html.TextBoxFor(u =&gt; u.CreatedDate, new { @class = "k-textbox", @readonly = "readonly" }) @Html.ValidationMessageFor(u =&gt; u.CreatedDate) &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/fieldset&gt; } </code></pre> <p>All properties of the model come in fine except for the datetime.<br> Any ideas on what's going wrong or how to debug this?</p>

    2. CODateTime.MinValue is the default value for a DateTime. I suspect you have a mismatch between your property name and the parameter name or the value isn't parseable as a DateTime.

    3. COEdited to show the relevant part of the Edit view. Although I'm not sure the view is the problem, as even if I don't have a field that shows the DateTime, it still comes back into the post as the DateTime.MinValue

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
