The model you send to the view is not empty and therefore it will not be empty. If you will make an registration form consider something like this.
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult Register()
{
return View();
}
[HttpPost]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public ActionResult Register(RegisterViewModel model)
{
if (ModelState.IsValid)
{
return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home");
}
return View(model);
}
@using (Html.BeginForm("Register", "Account", FormMethod.Post, new { @class = "form-horizontal", role = "form" }))
{
@Html.AntiForgeryToken()
<h4>Create a new account.</h4>
@Html.ValidationSummary()
<div class="form-group">
@Html.LabelFor(m => m.UserName, new { @class = "col-md-2 control-label" })
<div class="col-md-10">
@Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.UserName, new { @class = "form-control" })
</div>
</div>
<!--
<div class="form-group">
<div class="col-md-offset-2 col-md-10">
<input type="submit" class="btn btn-default" value="Register" />
</div>
</div>
}
