In this post, we are going the discuss about how to get the value from the Html. DropDownListFor razor control using a controller.
View
@using (Html.BeginForm("Save", "userdetail", FormMethod.Post, new { @id = "validationlist" }))
{
@Html.DropDownListFor(model => model.SelectedCountry, new SelectList
(Model.CountryDetail.OrderBy(s => s.CountryName), "CountryId", "CountryName", Model.SelectedCountry), "-- Select Country --")
<input id="submit" type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit" />
}
Model :
public class UserDetailModel
{
Display(Name = "CountryDetail")]
public List<Country> CountryDetail;
[Display(Name = "selectedcountry")]
public string SelectedCountry { get; set; }
}
public class Country
{
public int CountryId { get; set; }
public string CountryName { get; set; }
}
Controller :
public ActionResult Index()
{
UserDetailModel obj = new UserDetailModel();
obj.CountryDetail = new List<Country>()
{
new Country() { CountryId = 1, CountryName = "INDIA" },
new Country() { CountryId = 2, CountryName= "US" },
new Country() { CountryId = 3, CountryName= "Russia" },
new Country() { CountryId = 4, CountryName= "UK" }
};
return View(obj);
}
[HttpPost]
