Model Binding With Disabled Textbox

Question

I have a textbox that I am defining as

<%= Html.TextBox(\"Username\", Model.Form.Username, 
        new { @class = \"textbox\", @disabled = \"disabled\" }         


        

Answer 1

I believe a form field that is disabled does not submit anything. If you have a form and disable the foo field in that form, when you post the post will not have the value for the foo field. This is simply the nature of disabling a field in HTML and is not a MVC issue.
