You can try the following:<br />
<br />

<pre><code id="code-20-42767994-1">public class Employee
  {
      private employeeJoinDate = DateTime.Now; /*Here DateTime.Now will send the current date, you can hard code it as well*/
      public DateTime EmployeeJoinDate
      {
        get
          {
              return employeeJoinDate;
          }
          set
          {
              employeeJoinDate= value;

I have an MVC C# Application. On the cshtml page, i have a date input field. Sometimes the user leaves it blank and sometimes fills it in. I need to evaluate whether the field is blank or not in the controller. If it is blank, I would like to insert a default value of '01/02/1901'. I'm using html 5.<br />

input code is below:<br />

Microsoft’s ASP.NET MVC is a web application framework that implements the model–view–controller (MVC) pattern. As an open-source software, it’s set apart from the ASP.NET Web Forms component, which is proprietary.

.NET MVC

The .NET Framework is not specific to any one programming language; rather, it includes a library of functions that allows developers to rapidly build applications. Several supported languages include C#, VB.NET, C++ or ASP.NET.

.NET Programming

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).
