title: MaskedTextBoxFor loses value after submitting the MVC Razor View
body: <p>After submitting the form to the controller, the MaskedTextBoxFor inputs lose their values if the view returns from controller while all the other values (textboxdor, dropdownlistfor) remain as they are submitted. So, how to make MaskedTextBoxFor values remain when the submitted view returns from the controller? Thanks in advance...</p>
