@model IEnumerable<Models.Type>
Is not the same type that is causing this error. What could be the problem?

• The label shown to the user should be different from the value submitted in the form (yes, the value should be an object if where the label should obviously be a user-readable object description, so I'm having my server return data such as [{id:"1", label:"Belgium"}, {id:"2", label:"United Kingdom"}, {id:"3", label:"France"}] which I believe should allow me to display country names, but when the form is submitted, I should get the ID's. (I'm using the dataTextField and dataValueField)
