Just wondering, I strongly type these views in ASP.NET MVC and then use Request.Form on the submit controller to get the data out, validate it, put it in an object, send to database. Is there a way I can just send the object back from the View page since it is strongly typed instead of doing all this crap to just end up with an object again since I just started with one anyways?

ASP.NET MVC uses the ModelBinder object to bind your form elements to your model. If you're using the DefaultModelBinder (and most folks do), then simply give your form elements the same name as your model's properties. Keep in mind that ModelBinder can only bind to properties and not fields. HTH

@JM - what do you mean, and not fields? By bind to properties you mean that you can bind request input values to properties of your model object right?
