When submitting an Asp net mvc Form, some fields may not be posted as expected

I'm facing an issue with my ASP.NET MVC application form. Some fields that should be posted are missing, and I can't figure out why.

<form id="FormRegistroUsuario" action="/Account/AdminSecurityUserAccountAdd">
   <fieldset>
        <legend><h2 style="color:black;">Cadastro novo Usuário</h2></legend>
        <table id="tblUsuario">
            <tr>
                <td class="smallField">Username:</td>
                <td>@Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.UserName,new { @class = "validate[required]" }) </td>
                <td class="smallField" style="padding-left:10px;">Email:</td>
                <td>@Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.Email, new { @class = "validate[required,custom[email]]" }) </td>
                <td style="padding-left:10px;">Ativo:</td>
                <td>@Html.CheckBoxFor(m => m.Active)</td>
            </tr>
            <tr>
                <td class="smallField">Senha:</td>
                <td>@Html.PasswordFor(m => m.Password, new { @class = "validate[required, minSize[7]]" }) </td>
                <td style="padding-left:10px;">Repetir Senha:</td>
                <td>@Html.PasswordFor(m => m.ConfirmPassword, new { @class = "validate[required,equals[Password]]" }) </td>
                <td style="font-size:10px; padding-left:10px;">Habilitar Login com Cert. Digital:</td>
                <td>@Html.CheckBoxFor(m => m.isCertifiedAdd)
                    <div id="certDigitalBlockAdd">
                        <table>
                            <tr>

                            </tr>
                            <tr>

JS:

$('#FormRegistroUsuario').submit(function (e) {
        e.preventDefault();
        var form = $(this);
        console.log(form.serialize());
    });

The following fields are being posted:

UserName=Guilherme
Email=grlongo.ireland%40gmail.com
Active=true
Active=false
Password=%23t1g2p3&
ConfirmPassword=%23t1g2p3&
isCertifiedAdd=true
isCertifiedAdd=false
SecretQuestion=Qual+a+senha%3F&
SecretQuestionPassword=secreta
rolesGroup=Administrador

Regardless of whether I use @Ajax.beginForm or this manual approach, the result remains the same.

  • Sent using Ajax.beginForm
  • and ajax submit handle
  • I even created hidden extra fields to test if they would be posted (but they weren't).

Any assistance on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Answer №1

When working with Arrays in a loop, it is important to implement the appropriate technique in HTML...

For instance, within your Model.roles collection, you should follow this approach:

@for (int i = 0; i <= Model.roles.Count(); i++)
{
    var role = Model.roles[i];

    <input type="checkbox" 
           id="roles_@i" 
           name="roles[@i]" 
           value="@role" @(role.active ?? "checked='checked'" : "" />
}

Additional code not shown for clarity

Furthermore, keep in mind that any empty field will not be submitted...

By the way, even though your form only contains one Active property, upon submission it appears as two... how is your final HTML structured?

Answer №2

Uncovered the issue. The hidden fields were nested within a div that had its display:none activated, causing the values to not be submitted. By relocating them to the beginning of my form, everything is now functioning correctly.

Answer №3

I encountered a similar issue where using only the ID attribute without the name caused problems with submitting the form data. Adding the name attribute resolved the problem for me.

Previous code:

<input type="text" id="txt" class="form-control" />

Updated code fix:

<input type="text" id="txt" name=txt class="form-control" />
