are tried in google?

if you bind model to view you will get the selected value directly in controller

(without binding the model also we can achieve the selected value from ajax hit)

1.tell me few things have you bind any model to the view in which your dropdown exist.?

2. did you write post action method in controller?


//in view
<% using (Html.BeginForm())
               { %>
            
            <%=Html.DropDownListFor(m => m.CourseId, new SelectList((ViewBag.Courses) as SelectList, "Value", "Text"), "Select")%>
            
            <input id="submit" type="button" value="Save" name="submit" />
            <%} %>

//in document.ready
$("#submit").live("click", function (e) {
                
                e.preventDefault();
                var data = JSON.stringify({ CourseId: $('#CourseId').val()});
                $.ajax({
                    type: "POST",
                    url: config.basePath + '/Controllername/ActionMethodName',
                    cache: false,
                    data: data,
                    dataType: this.dataType,
                    contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
                    success: function (result) {

                        if (result.IsSuccess) {
                            $("#error_message").html(result.ErrorMessage);
                            $("#error_message").addClass("success");
                            UTMSGrid.StudentCourses.List.bindGrid($("#grid"));
                        }
                        else {
                            $("#error_message").html(result.ErrorMessage);
                            $("#error_message").addClass("fail");
                        }
                    },
                    error: function (data) {
                        // $("#error_message").html(data);

                    }
                }); // End ajax call



            });

//in controller
[HttpPost]
        public JsonResult ActionMethodName(ModelName model)
        {
        int id=   model.CourseId //contains selected courseid
            return Json(id, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
        }

Hey,

You can also do in this way. Create an view which will be strongly typed.


@model YourClassViewModel
@using (Html.BeginForm())
{
Security :
@Html.DropDownListFor(x => x.SelectedSecurityId ,new SelectList(Model.Securities, "Value", "Text"),"Select one")


CUSP:
@Html.DropDownListFor(x => x.SelectedCUSIPId ,new SelectList(Model.CUSIPs, "Value", "Text"),"Select one")




}

SQL
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult GetThat(YourClassViewModel objVM)
{
   // You can access like objVM.SelectedSecurityId
   //Save or whatever you do please...
}



After submitting an action you will get that selected dropdown value in param object.

HTML
@Html.DropDownList("ddl", new SelectList((System.Collections.IEnumerable)ViewData["list"], "Id", "Name"))


public ActionResult ActionName(String ddl)
{

  // now ddl has your dropdownlist's selected value i.e Id
 
}

I really hope the OP hasn't waited for over 4 years for this response. Alternatively perhaps they used the solution they accepted
