Pass List from view to controller - asp.net-mvc-3

Question

i am trying to pass List from view to controller but i am getting null value. code is written as follows :
model class :
public class testModel
{
public int ID { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public List<myModel> ParameterList {get;set;}
}
jquery and ajax code to post data to controller :
var myModel = {
"Name":"test",
"Description":"desc"
};
var Object = {
Name: $("#Name").val(),
ParameterList : myModel
};
$.ajax({
url: '/controller/action',
type: 'POST',
data: JSON.stringify(Object),
dataType: 'json',
contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8',
success: function (data) { }
else { }
}
});
i am getting value for Name property but not for ParameterList.
What is wrong here ? am i missing anything ?
Please help me out.
Thanks
Edit : Controller Code from comments,
public JsonResult Save(Object Obj)
{
// logic for managing model and db save
}

You said,
I am getting value for Name property but not for ParameterList.
Which makes me wonder what is the structure of myModel, as you have declared ParameterList as a list of myModel type : List<myModel> ParameterList
Also I would recommend you to log JSON.stringify(Object) to console and check the Json value you are actually posting to the controller.
Here is what I found you must be posting back
{"Name":"yasser","ParameterList":{"Name":"test","Description":"desc"}}

Try this:
var myModel = [{
"Name":"test",
"Description":"desc"
}];
var Object = {
Name: $("#Name").val(),
ParameterList : myModel
};
$.ajax({
url: '/controller/action',
type: 'POST',
data: Object,
dataType: 'json',
traditional: true,
contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8',
success: function (data) { }
else { }
}
});

Just try like this..Hope this would help!!
script:
var emp = [{ 'empid': 1, 'name': 'sasi' },{ 'empid': 2, 'name': 'sathish'}];
emp = JSON.stringify(emp)
$.post("/Home/getemplist/", { 'emp': emp })
Controller:
Here i just changed the parameter to string type. using JavaScriptSerializer you can able to convert this string data to your class list objects.. you can understand it better if u see my code below:
public void getemplist(string emp)
{
List<Emp> personData;
JavaScriptSerializer jss = new JavaScriptSerializer();
personData = jss.Deserialize<List<Emp>>(emp);
// DO YOUR OPERATION ON LIST OBJECT
}
