3.View
@model MVCChkBxTest.Models.CustomReport

@using (Html.BeginForm(null, null, FormMethod.Post))
{
    @Html.HiddenFor(x => x.SelectedCheckboxes, Model.SelectedCheckboxes)

    if(Model.statusList != null)
    {
        foreach(var item in Model.statusList)
        {
            @Html.HiddenFor(modelItem => item.EmployeeStatusID)
            @Html.HiddenFor(modelItem => item.IsSelected)
            @Html.CheckBoxFor(modelItem => item.IsSelected.Value,
                    new { @id = item.EmployeeStatusID, @class = "checkboxClass"})
            @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.EmployeeStatusName)
        }
        <input type="submit" value="Search" name="btn" id="btnSearch" />
    }
}

@section Scripts{
    <script type="text/javascript">
        $(document).ready(function () {
            $("#btnSearch").click(function (evt) {
                var checkedVals = $('.checkboxClass:checkbox:checked').map(function () {
                    return this.id;
                }).get();
                $("#SelectedCheckboxes").val((checkedVals.join(',')));
            });
