title: Populating a list through a form
body: <p>I'm creating a website with asp.net, mvc 4 and c# and currently have a problem I did not find a solution online for. </p>
  
  <p>I have a rather complex CREATE-form which includes a dropdown-list with the values 1-7 and a list of textboxes. To this list of textboxes I can add more textboxes via JavaScript so the amount of textboxes is not limited right now. </p>
  
  <p>Moreover, if I select any value in the dropdown-list - let's say value 5 - the list of textboxes appears 5 times. </p>
  
  <p>To handle the undetermined amount of textboxes, each textbox in such a list gets the same name  with an index per list. To give an example: in the first list of textboxes, they are all named textbox-1, in the second list they have the name textbox-2, etc.. I hope you get where I'm going with this.</p>
  
  <p>My Problem now: I would like to have a model with 7 lists of strings which get populated with the values from the respective textboxes. Maybe I didn't really know what to look for (because honestly I didn't) but I could not find anything similar on Google. </p>
  
  <p>The only solution that I could think of would be to not use a model and just use the form collection but that feels like it would destroy any purpose and advantage of the mvc framework. But maybe there is also a completely different approach to this problem that totally slipped my mind.</p>
  
  <p>I hope I could you guys can even understand what I'm talking about.. kinda hard to explain. If not I'm sure you'll let me know :-)</p>
