I have done a simple applicaion using ASP.NET MVC4. I am trying to insert multiple row data into the database.What i have done that is working fine for single row. Single row is inserted but in multiple row i am getting a problem... the data are not pass from client side to server side (catch by a form collection object )in controller and also loop is not properly working.
my view is:
<table style="width:100%" id="tbldata">
<tr>
<th>Document </th>
<th>Sem/Year(ifapplicable)</th>
<th>File</th>
</tr>
@for (int i = 0; i < 7; i++ )
{
<tr class="document">
<td style="width:40%">@Html.DropDownListFor(m => m.selectdocId, ViewBag.selectdocId as IEnumerable<SelectListItem>,"--Select--", new { @id="docid" +i , @class="Doctype"})</td>
<td style="width:10%">@Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.sem, new { @id="sem" +i, @class="semid"})</td>
<td style="width:40%"><input type="file" multiple="" name="file" value="Browse" /></td>
</tr>
}
</table>
My controller is:
public ActionResult display(FormCollection collection, IEnumerable<HttpPostedFileBase>file )
{
for(int i=0; i<7; i++)
{
int semid = Convert.ToInt32(collection["sem" + i]);
int docid = Convert.ToInt32(collection["docid" + i]);
tbldocumentdetail doc = new tbldocumentdetail();
doc.sem = Convert.ToInt32(semid);
doc.selectdocId = Convert.ToInt32(docid);
db.tbldocumentdetails.Add(doc);
db.SaveChanges();
}
foreach (var item in file)
{
if (item == null && item.ContentLength < 0)
{
ModelState.AddModelError("file", "please uploded your file");
}
else
{
var filename = Path.GetFileName(item.FileName);
var path = Path.Combine(Server.MapPath("~/Content/savedoc"), filename);
item.SaveAs(path);
tbldocumentdetail doc = new tbldocumentdetail();
doc.fileName = filename;
string a = "~/Content/savedoc" + filename;
doc.path = a;
db.tbldocumentdetails.Add(doc);
db.SaveChanges();
}
