Asp .Net method in controller taking a list of strings

Question

I need to send a list of strings to a method in a controller in asp net mvc. How can I do this?

I want my method in my controller to look something like this:

public ActionResult CutFile(string[] filenames, string target)

Optionally I can change the string array parameter to something like this:

public ActionResult CutFile(IEnumerable<string> filenames, string target)

You need to send the data in this format:

<input type="text" name="filenames[0]" value="A"/>
<input type="text" name="filenames[1]" value="B"/>
<input type="text" name="filenames[2]" value="C"/>

<input type="text" name="target" />
