Hello everyone,
I have a scenario in which I have multiple sources to bind to my model. For one, I have a view tied to a strongly-typed model, but this scenario also entails posting data to this view from a 3rd party site.
Essentially, what I believe I am after in the custom model binding is to investigate the form values in the Request object within HTTPContext to see if I have a field such as "postedFirstName". If so, I want to bind that value instead of the textbox "FirstName" in my view.
I've done a good bit of searching but have not find anything that exactly addresses such a scenario. This link was close, I thought, but not quite:

Any input is greatly appreciated!
