ASP.Net MVC 3 JSON Model Binding and server side model validation mixed with client side validation

Question

I\'ve been playing with the new MVC3 Json Model Binding and it\'s quite nice.

Currently, I can post JSON to controller and bind it. Model Validation occurs nicely too.

@Junto and @Jamey777, you both pass the ModelState to your error function but then you use the global variable instead of the parameter.

and why dont you just use a little linq like

    private Dictionary GetModelStateErrorsAsString()
    {
        return ModelState.Where(x=> x.Value.Errors.Any())
            .ToDictionary(x => x.Key, x => x.Value.Errors.First().ErrorMessage);
    }
