This problem has been plaguing me for two days now. There are some similar posts, but none that address my problem completely.
Using MVC-3, Razor syntax:
-- EDIT.cshtml --
@using (Html.BeginForm("Edit", "My", FormMethod.Post, new { enctype = "multipart/form-data" }))
{
<!-- Some fields... -->
<div class="editor-field">
@Html.TextAreaFor(m => m.LongDescription)
@Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => m.LongDescription)
</div>
<!-- Some more fields work... Including picture upload (summary).-->
<input name="button" type="submit" value="Add Picture" />
<!-- Picture Item display -->
@foreach(var thumbnail in Model.ThumbnailImagePathAndNames)
{
<img src="@Url.Content(@thumbnail.ThumbnailPicturePath)" alt="" width="200" />
@Html.RadioButtonFor(o=>o.SelectedImage, @thumbnail.ImageGUID) Primary Picture
<!-- Checkbox to mark for deletion -->
@Html.CheckBoxFor(o=>thumbnail.Delete) Delete ???????? <!---- Here is a problem - I don't understand how this should work -->
}
<input id="Submit1" name="button" type="submit" value="Complete Edit!" />
}
-- MyController.cs --
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Edit(String button, HttpPostedFileBase file, MyMainModel model)
{
// if button = submit picture, work with picture here and break(long story)
// save model data
// if valid, save and redirect
// not valid or error, load up view like normal but with error messages
model.LoadThumbnails();
return View(model);
}
-- MyMainModel.cs --
public class MyMainModel
{
// some properties...
public Guid? SelectedImage { get; set; }
[Display(Name = "Detailed Description")]
public String LongDescription { get; set; }
// some more properties....
// and finally my list of models
