I have an ASP .NET Core MVC web page that shows the names of jurors within a panel. The number of panels or jurors aren't fixed, so basically I build the view by looping through the available panels and then by looping through the available jurors: @foreach ( var panel in Model.PanelComposition) { class = "row" > class = "col" > class = "font-weight-bold" >@panel.Functie: class = "col" > @panel.JuryName } For every juror, I display his/her function and full name. The next step would be to create an edit page for the same data, the idea being to offer a listing of all available jurors through combo boxes. But, I would then have to create a combo box for each available function and post the data back to the controller so I can save the data. I'm basically wondering how I would do this in a safe & elegant fashion?

On Edit send the Id of Jury to the controller using Ajax and fetch all related details for Edit at the same time fetch all available jurors, create a modal to hold all these and send using json, in view bind combobox and mark the current Juror as selected . post your query, if you stuck anywhere.

I have an ASP .NET Core MVC web page that shows the names of jurors within a panel. The number of panels or jurors aren't fixed, so basically I build the view by looping through the available panels and then by looping through the available jurors:

@foreach (var panel in Model.PanelComposition)
{
<div class="row">
<div class="col">
<p class="font-weight-bold">@panel.Functie:</p>
</div>
<div class="col">
@panel.JuryName
</div>
</div>
}

For every juror, I display his/her function and full name.

The next step would be to create an edit page for the same data, the idea being to offer a listing of all available jurors through combo boxes. But, I would then have to create a combo box for each available function and post the data back to the controller so I can save the data.
