    <p>Replace the <code>foreach</code> loop in your view with a call to an editor template:</p> <pre><code>@model IEnumerable&lt;MyProgramRatingApp.Program&gt; @{ ViewBag.Title = "CastVote"; } &lt;h2&gt;CastVote&lt;/h2&gt; @using (Html.BeginForm()) { &lt;table&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;th style="border:1px solid Teal; background-color:Gray"&gt; ProgramName &lt;/th&gt; &lt;th style="border:1px solid Teal; background-color:Gray"&gt; RatingID &lt;/th&gt; &lt;th style="border:1px solid Teal; background-color:Gray"&gt; ProgramCategory &lt;/th&gt; &lt;th style="border:1px solid Teal; background-color:Gray"&gt;&lt;/th&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; @Html.EditorForModel() &lt;/table&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;input type="submit" value="Cast Vote" /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; } </code></pre> <p>and then define the editor template which will be automatically rendered for each element in the model (<code>~/Views/Shared/EditorTemplates/Program.cshtml</code>):</p> <pre><code>@model MyProgramRatingApp.Program &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td style="border:1px solid Teal"&gt; @Html.EditorFor(x =&gt; x.ProgramName) &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td style="border:1px solid Teal"&gt; @Html.EditorFor(x =&gt; x.RatingID) &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td style="border:1px solid Teal"&gt; @Html.EditorFor(x =&gt; x.ProgramCategory) &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td style="border:1px solid Teal"&gt; @Html.DropDownListFor( x =&gt; x.RatingID, (SelectList)ViewBag.RatingEnum, String.Empty ) &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; </code></pre> <p>Notice that I have used <code>@Html.EditorFor</code> in the editor template instead of <code>@Html.DisplayFor</code> in order to generate input fields. If you don't do that you won't get any values back in the controller because your form doesn't contain any input elements. If you don't want to show input fields you could use hidden inputs:</p> <pre><code>@model MyProgramRatingApp.Program &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td style="border:1px solid Teal"&gt; @Html.DisplayFor(x =&gt; x.ProgramName) @Html.HiddenFor(x =&gt; x.ProgramName) &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td style="border:1px solid Teal"&gt; @Html.DisplayFor(x =&gt; x.RatingID) @Html.HiddenFor(x =&gt; x.RatingID) &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td style="border:1px solid Teal"&gt; @Html.DisplayFor(x =&gt; x.ProgramCategory) @Html.HiddenFor(x =&gt; x.ProgramCategory) &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td style="border:1px solid Teal"&gt; @Html.DropDownListFor( x =&gt; x.RatingID, (SelectList)ViewBag.RatingEnum, String.Empty ) &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; </code></pre> <p>The editor template will generate correct names for the input fields so that the model binder correctly binds the values.</p> <p>You may also take a look at the <a href="http://www.hanselman.com/blog/ASPNETWireFormatForModelBindingToArraysListsCollectionsDictionaries.aspx" rel="nofollow">following article</a> to better understand the wire format that is expected for collections.</p>

    1. CO@Lijo, that's most probably because you made some mistake in the naming of your editor template. Make sure that it is located in `~/Views/Shared/EditorTemplates/` and that it is called `Program.cshtml`. If it is not showing it means that you didn't place the template at the correct place. Double check once again.

    2. CO@Lijo, I made a mistake in my code. You should use `@Html.EditorFor` instead of `@Html.DisplayFor` in the template. I have updated my answer to fix that. A DisplayFor simply generates a label. You need to use an input field if you want to preserve the value when posting to the controller.

    3. CO@Lijo, you have 2 inputs for it. One `@Html.EditorFor(x => x.RatingID)` and one `@Html.DropDownListFor`. You must decide which one of the two to use in order to bind this value. Then remove the other.

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).
