Title Body

I have a data class that contains a number of fields: public class Person { public int id { get; set } public string Name { get; set; } public double Rate { get; set; } public int Type { get; set; } } If I understand Scott Hanselman's take on binding arrays of objects , I should be able to create a form view that renders HTML that looks like this: <input name="Person[0].id" value="26" type="hidden" /> <input name="Person[0].Name" value="Tom Smith" type="text" /> <input name="Person[0].Rate" value="40.0" type="text" /> <select name="Person[0].Type"> <option selected="selected" value="1">Full Time</option> <option value="2">Part Time</option> </select> <input name="Person[1].id" value="33" type="hidden" /> <input name="Person[1].Name" value="Fred Jones" type="text" /> <input name="Person[1].Rate" value="45.0" type="text" /> <select name="Person[1].Type"> <option value="1">Full Time</option> <option selected="selected" value="2">Part Time</option> </select> I should then be able to capture this data in my controller with an action method that looks like this: [AcceptVerbs(HttpVerbs.Post)] public ActionResult People(Person[] array) { // Do stuff with array } But it doesn't work. The array variable is always null. I interpret this as the data binding is not working. But why?
