Request .Form returns null
asp.net, c#, html
Solution
try adding name to your input field :
<input type="text" id="PcId" name="PcId" value=<%=Model.PcId %>
According to The W3C specification, that every form input element should have a name attribute specified. Otherwise that element will not be processed.
