Can not parse datatable ajax request

Question

I'm currently try to use the JQuery Datatables in my Project. This seem to work quite well, but I have problems to process the Ajax request for removing a row.

The Ajax request that is send by the datatables Editor plugin is formatted like:

action=remove&table=pzeIpMaster&id=&data%5B%5D=3

The method in the controller looks like

[Authorize, HttpPost]
public ActionResult OnDeletePzeMaster(
  string action, string table, string id, string[] data)

The values of the parameters are

action = remove
table = pzeIpMaster
id = ""
data = null

Why is data set to null ?!! In my opinion data must be set to {3}

Thx for your help

data%5B%5D decodes to data[]. So MVC can't match data[] with yor data parameter.

You could try this:

[Authorize, HttpPost]
public ActionResult OnDeletePzeMaster(
  string action, string table, string id)
{
var data = this.Request.Form["data[]"];
}

Or you could write a ModelBinder like this

but that's the way the DataTables Editor is sending it? What would be the correct way to map it? – BitKFu Jun 21 '13 at 07:37
@BitKFu Maybe you can do something with this : editor.datatables.net/options/#ajaxUrl – LMeyer Jun 21 '13 at 08:12
