title: The value is invalid yet should it is a valid input value
body: <p>I'm creating a webpage using MVC 5, Visual Studio, C#.</p>
  
  <p>In my view I have a remark page which the user is allowed to make a remark in a text box and click "save" to save the remark in a database. However, it is saying that the value of the remark is invalid when it shouldn't be.</p>
  
  <p>The error is </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>The value 'Testing Remark' is invalid</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>yet it should be valid</p>
  
  <p>In my model, I have a class called Recall, which has a </p>
  
  <pre><code>public string Remark {get; set;}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>In the view I have</p>
  
  <pre><code>@using (Html.BeginForm())
  {
      &lt;div class="form-group"&gt;
      @Html.LabelFor(model=&gt;model.Remark, htmlAttributes: new {@class ="control-label col-md-2"})
      &lt;div class="col-md-10"&gt;
      @Html.TextAreaFor(model =&gt; model.Remark, 5, 50, new { @class = "text-danger"})
      @Html.validationMessageFor(model =&gt; model.Remark, "", new { @class = "text-danger"})
      &lt;/div&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;
      &lt;div class="form-group"&gt;
      &lt;input type="submit" value="save" class="btn btn-default" /&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>In the controller
  ....
  not putting the controller code here since it should have nothing to do with the error I'm getting.</p>
