I am developing my ASp.net MVC application using Kendoui MVC extensions. So In my form I have all the kendoui grid, dropdown, datepicker etc... I have accumulated them all in my @using(Html.BeginForm ()) But I am not sure How do i post my form data to the controller. If anybody has done that could you please shre your experience.

For example:

I have two entities: Faculty and FacultyType in My DAL

​public class Faculties
{
    public int FacultyId { get; set; }
    public string StaffNumber { get; set; }

    public int FacultyTypeId { get; set; }
    public virtual FacultyTypes FacultyTypes { get; set; }
}

public class FacultyTypes
{
    public FacultyTypes()
     {
       this.Faculties = new List<Faculties>();
      }
    public int FacultyTypeId { get; set; }
    public string FacultyTypeCode { get; set; }
    public string FacultyType { get; set; }
    public bool IsDefunct { get; set; }
    public virtual ICollection<Faculties> Faculties { get; set; }
}


I have my ViewModels in my application:

​public class ViewModelFaculty
{
    public int FacultyId { get; set; }
    public string StaffNumber { get; set; }

    public ViewModelFacultyTypes FacultyType { get; set; }
}

public class ViewModelFacultyTypes
{

    [ScaffoldColumn(false)]
    public int FacultyTypeId { get; set; }

    [Required(ErrorMessage ="Faculty Type Code is Required")]
    public string FacultyTypeCode { get; set; }

    [Required]
    public string FacultyType { get; set; }

     public bool IsDefunct { get; set; }

}

My View page having kendoui extensions for ASp.net MVC.

@using(Html.BeginForm())
{
<fieldset>
<legend class="main">Personal Particulars</legend>
<div class="view-table">
<div class="view-row">
<div class="view-name"><label for="staffId">Staff ID</label></div>
<div class="view-name"><input id ="txtStaffId" name="StaffId" class="k-textbox" data-bind="value: StaffId" type="text" required /></div>
<div class="view-name"><label for="facultyType">Faculty Type</label></div>
<div class="view-name">
@(Html.Kendo().DropDownList()
.Name("ddFacultyType")
.DataTextField("FacultyType")
.DataValueField("FacultyTypeId")
.OptionLabel("Select Faculty Type")
.Enable(true)
.AutoBind(true)
.DataSource(ds =>
{
ds.Read(read =>
{
read.Action("GetFacultyTypes", "NewFaculty");
})
.ServerFiltering(true);
})

)
</div>
</div>
}

I am showing a part of my view as if I could post two fields then rest all will be of same logic.
So now when I submit my form I need to post the data in the form to controller.
Even kendoUi website as also not given any end to end example of how to use the extensions in a form and how to post the data.

If anyone has been working in same enviorment or any direction on how to do please suggest me.
