Hi. I'm new to Umbraco 7. I created a contact form using the Creating Forms documentation. It worked.

Now I'm trying to create a subject field of type select with some options from the controller.

My controller:

public class ContactFormController : SurfaceController
{
    public ActionResult Index()
    {
        var theOptions= new List<SelectListItem>
        {
            new SelectListItem() {Text = "Option 1", Value = "1"},
            new SelectListItem() {Text = "Option 2", Value = "2"},
            new SelectListItem() {Text = "Option 3", Value = "3"}
        };
        ViewBag.DdlSubject = theOptions;
    }

    [HttpPost]
    public ActionResult Submit(...)
    {
        etc... (it works)
    }
}

And my partial view:

@model MyProject.Models.ContactFormModel

@{
    List<SelectListItem> listSubjects = ViewBag.DdlSubject;
}

@using (Html.BeginUmbracoForm("Submit", "ContactForm"))
{
    @Html.DropDownListFor(x => x.Subject, listSubjects, "-- select --")
    ... other fields and submit button ...
}

But the Index method of my controller is never hit. What am I missing?

Thanks in advance.
