Getting null value to controller's action passing from javascript using jquery

Question

What I tried in my project is like passing checkbox's selected value as a comma separated string to json of my controller.. but i'm not getting a value to the json action.. it shows null over there.

How can I do this? Please help me

function getIds(checkList) 
{
    var idList = new Array();
    var loopCounter = 0;
    jQuery("input[name=" + checkList + "]:checked").each
    (
        function() 
        {
           idList[loopCounter] = jQuery(this).val();
           loopCounter += 1; 
        }
    );
       alert(idList);
          jQuery.getJSON("/Photos/CheckForIdsJson", { idList: idList });     
 }

 [AcceptVerbs(HttpVerbs.Get)]        
 public JsonResult CheckForIdsJson(Int32[] idList)
 {
       JsonResult result = new JsonResult();
        result.Data = idList;
         return result;
 }

Where do you see the null value, in `idList` in you js file, in controller code or in return resul tback in your js code? — Jahan Zinedine, Jan 12 '12 at 09:43
maybe you can take a look at this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/536283/jquery-getjson-not-passing-any-values-to-controller. — JoJa, Jan 12 '12 at 09:44
Put some alerts in your code to evaluate the status of the array, and use Firebug to evaluate the code to determine when/where you are losing your values in the idlist. Once you know where the problem occurs, you can focus on the JSON aspect. — jamesTheProgrammer, Jan 12 '12 at 14:47

You can have a look at this post : AJAX Post of JavaScript String Array to JsonResult as List<string> Always Returns Null? or this one : Send list/array as parameter with jQuery getJson . It seems that you have to indicate traditional: true in your ajax call.

Have you try a `return RedirectToAction("yourAction", "yourController");` instead of returning your result? – Samuel Caillerie Dec 04 '12 at 09:22

Use this in your script :

var did ='',
$("#tbl").find("input:checkbox").each(function (i) {
    if (this.checked == true) {
        did += $(this).val() + ",";
    }
});

alert(did); 

if (did == "") {
    alert("Please Select"); 
    return; 
}
