  CS1579: foreach statement cannot operate on variables of type because does not contain a public ...

  Jan 12, 2011 09:09 AM|LINK

  So I have something like this:

  @model SunChess.Model.Game
             
  
  @{
      ViewBag.Title = "GameList";
  }
  
  
  <h2>GameList</h2>
  
  
  @foreach (var game in Model)
  {
      using (Html.BeginForm("JoinGame", "Game", FormMethod.Post))
      {
          <input type="hidden" name="whoJoin" value="@Context.User.Identity.Name" />
          <input type="hidden" name="playedID" value="@Model.PlayerID" />
          <input type="hidden" name="gameID" value="@Model.GameID" />
      @Html.ActionLink("Join", "JoinGame", new { id = Model.UniqueName })
          <input type="submit" value="Join Game" />
          
  
      }
  }

  
  And Controller:

  
  

  public ActionResult GameList()
          {
              List<Game> game = _gameService.GetAllNewGames();
  
              return View(game);
          }

  
  And Yeah, error i Get is in topic name, but there are details:

  
  

  Line 7:  <h2>GameList</h2>
  Line 8:  
  Line 9:  @foreach (var game in (List<Game>)Model)
  Line 10: {
  Line 11:     using (Html.BeginForm("JoinGame", "Game", FormMethod.Post))
  
  Im using MVC3 and Entity Framework 4.
  
  I must ask. Whats wrong. I've been doing some research trough google, 
  but all the solutions I have found just do not work for me

  Type of Model and game should be compatible and deterministic!

  to

  @model List<SunChess.Model.Game>

  @foreach (var game in Model)   

  {   

      using (Html.BeginForm("JoinGame", "Game", FormMethod.Post))   

   

  In addition to what others have suggested, I would suggest that you take BeginForm statement out of FOR loop since it would try to create multiple FORM tags within your markup (which, perhaps, is not what you intended).

  Please "Mark As Answered" if it helped you.
  
  Thanks.

  I need multiple forms, so it's working as intended, but thanks for intrest.
