I see that this question is already answered. Following is another approach I used in a MVC view, when the form collection was empty. Using JavaScript / jQuery, it sets name-value pairs to a hidden control which gets appended to the form.

JavaScript / jQuery

 $("#btnExport").click(function (event) {
                event.preventDefault();

                //Append the parameter to the form
                var practiceVal = $('#Practice').val();
                $('').attr('type', 'hidden')
                   .attr('name', "Practice").attr('value', practiceVal)
                   .appendTo('#formHome');

                //Submit
                $('#formHome').submit();
            });
