    <p>Ok, I've been going at this for several hours and I simply cannot find the solution.</p> <p>I want to get some data from my user. So first, I use a controller to create a view which receives a Model:</p> <pre><code>public ViewResult CreateArticle() { Article newArticle = new Article(); ImagesUploadModel dataFromUser = new ImagesUploadModel(newArticle); return View(dataFromUser); } </code></pre> <p>Then, I have the view:</p> <pre><code>&lt;asp:Content ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="MainContentPlaceHolder" runat="server"&gt; &lt;h2&gt;AddArticle&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;% using (Html.BeginForm("CreateArticle", "Admin", FormMethod.Post, new { enctype = "multipart/form-data" })){ %&gt; &lt;%= Html.LabelFor(model =&gt; model.newArticle.Title)%&gt; &lt;%= Html.TextBoxFor(model =&gt; model.newArticle.Title)%&gt; &lt;%= Html.LabelFor(model =&gt; model.newArticle.ContentText)%&gt; &lt;%= Html.TextBoxFor(model =&gt; model.newArticle.ContentText)%&gt; &lt;%= Html.LabelFor(model =&gt; model.newArticle.CategoryID)%&gt; &lt;%= Html.TextBoxFor(model =&gt; model.newArticle.CategoryID)%&gt; &lt;p&gt; Image1: &lt;input type="file" name="file1" id="file1" /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; Image2: &lt;input type="file" name="file2" id="file2" /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;div&gt; &lt;button type="submit" /&gt;Create &lt;/div&gt; &lt;%} %&gt; &lt;/asp:Content&gt; </code></pre> <p>and finally - the original controller, but this time configured to accept the data:</p> <pre><code> [HttpPost] public ActionResult CreateArticle(ImagesUploadModel dataFromUser) { if (ModelState.IsValid) { HttpPostedFileBase[] imagesArr; imagesArr = new HttpPostedFileBase[2]; int i = 0; foreach (string f in Request.Files) { HttpPostedFileBase file = Request.Files[f]; if (file.ContentLength &gt; 0) imagesArr[i] = file; } </code></pre> <p>The rest of this controller does not matter since no matter what I do, the <code>count</code> attribute of <code>Request.Files</code> (or <code>Request.Files.Keys</code>) remains 0. I simply can't find a way to pass the files from the form (the Model passes just fine).</p>

Guidance
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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

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