ASP MVC Edit Post Function has null Parameter

I'm trying to create a very basic MVC app based on a tutorial. I am using the default routing, and simple Views and Model.

The problem I am having is with the HttpPost Edit function. I am expecting an object of my "MyObject" type to be passed as the parameter, but it always comes back null.

Here are my Edit functions from the controller (the Get function works properly):

public ActionResult Edit(int? id)
{
    if (!id.HasValue)
        return RedirectToAction("Index");

    var item = (from obj in mDB.MyDatabaseObjects
                where obj.Id == id
                select obj).First();
    return View(item);
}

//
// POST: /Main/Edit/5

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Edit(MyDatabaseObject someObject)
{
    var original = (from obj in mDB.MyDatabaseObjects
                    where obj.Id == someObject.Id
                    select obj).First();

    if (!ModelState.IsValid)
        return View(original);

    mDB.ApplyCurrentValues(original.EntityKey.EntitySetName, someObject);
    mDB.SaveChanges();

    return RedirectToAction("Index");
}

Note that my (nearly identical) Create method works as expected:

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult C开发者_开发百科reate([Bind(Exclude="Id")] MyDatabaseObject newObject)
{
    if (!ModelState.IsValid)
        return View();

    int max = mDB.MyDatabaseObjects.Max(data => data.TaskOrder);

    newObject.TaskOrder = max + 1;
    mDB.AddToMyDatabaseObjects(newObject);
    mDB.SaveChanges();

    return RedirectToAction("Index");
}

Thanks,

wTs

Ensure the values on your view for MyDatabaseObject are inside of the form. Validate these values are being posted over - inspect Request.Form or use change the method signature to use

FormsCollection collection

simply to validate the values are getting posted. If its choosing that method - it should be matching the properties to the form field - its generally very simple.
