Secondly, how does ASP.NET MVC know that action is my action, and controller is my controller. Like I saw this in samples, and it does work, but isn't it just an anonymous object with no type?
In one view (view1) there is a text box and a button beside it. i click on that button, i am popping another view (Create view) as a seperate window. in create view i am entering some values and creating a record in db. out of these values one value i have to send back to "View1". how can i send this value? i am opening view2 from view1 like
View2 contains some fields like Name,Email etc... and I click "Create" to call HTTPPOST. there i add the values to db including a generated guid. i want to send this ID to view1.
I am desiging a master and details page from a search page..user can search for something and I need to display the result in jqgrid if the result has more than 1 row or record.. if the result is just one record then i have to directly send then to details page by skiping grid page... I do have an action method for results page and one more action method for Jqgrid data..i am trying to check the row count for the database result and trying to redirect to details action results..but its not working at all..and showing an empty jqgrid..
I am rather new to ASP.NET MVC and am trying to develop good practices and have studied a few tutorials and videos. There seems to be some differences in how people define the signature of a typical edit action method - sometimes the id (primary key) is listed and sometimes not. It seems like letting the framework do the model binding is a GOOD THING, so I will probably have the model (or view model) as a parameter:
But, should the id be a parameter too? I assume it is common-place to have the id in a hidden form field as well so the id (primary key) is then already bound in the model (or view model) - if so, what is the id parameter good for? Or should it be the other way around - keep the id parameter and do not bother using a hidden field for it? What are the pros and cons and what is the best practice?
I have an action link that I use to pass values to a controller using this statement:
<%: Html.ActionLink("Addition 1 to 10", "CreatePdf", "Pdf", new { id = 32, stOperation = "Add", stNumbers = "10" }, null)%>
So when a user clicks on the above link the controller CreatePDF is called with the parameters of id, stOperation, and stNumbers. I then use these three parameters to return a pdf document to the user.I also have a checkbox on the html page as defined by:
<%: Html.CheckBox("chkAnswers", false) %>
My question is how to pass the value of this checkbox in the above HTML.ActionLink? I have a tutorial on using the submit button to submit an entire form and the associated data. However I do not want the user to have to click a button. Instead I'd like return the value of the checkbox in the action link but I'm not sure how to do this. I want something like:
%: Html.ActionLink("Addition 1 to 10", "CreatePdf", "Pdf", new { id = 32, stOperation = "Add", stNumbers = "10", checkboxValue = true or false }, null)%>
I have the following javascript. Problem is if I enter one row in the table "ingredients" but I am getting 2 rows in the resulting pass to controller action after seralising into my C# object. But the second object is null? I checked the javascript and the variable "cnt" is 1 not 2. Why would that be?

i wonder something about mvc post method. for example I created a view "strongly typed" from a model (MyModel).
<%@ Page Title="" Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Views/Shared/Site.Master" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewPage<Demo1.Models.MyModel>" %> for Create actionsthere is two way. first one takes MyModel as parameter [HttpPost] public ActionResult cart(MyModel md, int someID) { //some code //..... return View(MyModel); } second one does not take parameter as model. [HttpPost] public ActionResult cart(int someID) { //some code //..... return View(Mymodel); }
for first one way, after form post the form values does not delete, I mean form does not cleared,after second one form is be cleared. why this diffirence?
Basically, I have an HTML Form and would want to pass the data from the form to n asp.net mvc controller, then the controller would return an XML for client side manipulation.
Here is my initial code:
[Code]....
When I run and debug, I get a message that says "attr(..) is null or not an object. I am still trying to learn web development using ASP.NET MVC.
I have 2 classes that are used to mirror the data from an ajax call. One (Customer) contains a property which is name, and the other is an array of Products.
Public Class Customer Private _Name as String Private _Products as Product() Public Property Name() As String
I am trying to send json data from view to controller action. But the issue is the data is not populating in the action parameter List<Score>.
View Model: public class Score { public int QuestionId { get; set; } public int PrevAnswerId { get; set; } public int CurrAnswerId { get; set; } public string CurrAnswerName { get; set; } }
Json Data look like: [ {QuestionId:1, PrevAnswerId:3, CurrAnswerId:3, CurrAnswerName:'Known to Broker'}, {QuestionId:2, PrevAnswerId:7, CurrAnswerId:7, CurrAnswerName:'Completed'}, {QuestionId:3, PrevAnswerId:10, CurrAnswerId:10, CurrAnswerName:'Report'} ]
On window load, I will construct the Json object using "eval()" function and do some operation in the data before its save. On Save Click, I will call the action through the ajax call.
Action: public ActionResult SaveScore(List<Score> score) { // do something... }
But here score comming as collection of 3 elements with zero(for interger property)/null(for string property) values. When I checked in the request I found the data in "parama" property like.
But I am not sure why it is not getting populated in the score list. One full day I spent for this issue but till now I didnt find the solution for this issue.
I have created a web service (.asmx) which is working fine locally.Now when a client of ours is trying to access this web servce he receives an error sayinginvalid action parameter.Any idea why this error appears..also will
I am using VS 2008 SP1. My also have included CSS Friendly adapter [URL] in my project ( I mentioned this because my GridView Empty data template is not showing when using GridView's CCS Friendly adapter). I have a GridView and a DetailsView. When a record in GridView is selected its details information is shown in the Details View. Type of Data source I am using is ObjectDataSource. My Insert and Update methods works perfectly. It is only the Delete method that is passing null values to the underlying object delete method. My source codes for both the UI, BLL, DAL is shown below
Every single parameter is bound just fine except toDate which turns out to be always null. When inspecting the Request.QueryString["toDate"] it retrives the right value which is 30/09/2010. It seems that DateTime expects another format when binding. What is the right format?
I thought this would be easy and maybe it is but it's eluding me.
In an action filter (MVC 2) I want to add/edit one of the parameters for the type I'm passing to my action method.
I have an action method:
[Code]....
Bar is a simple class for viewData:
[Code]....
In my BarFilter action filter OnActionExecuting method I want to add a value for paramA which is not set by the view so that Bar will be fully populated in my Foo action method. I've tried various methods of adding values to ViewData, ModelState, Model etc. but I always get a null returned in Foo.
I've been using the new ASP.Net MVC 3 RemoteAttribute to send a remote call to an action method that had a single parameter. Now I want to pass in a second parameter using the AdditionalFields property:
I have 2 views for a input operation in my application.
The first view (lets call it view1) submits a form. Based on the form some operations on database is done and second view(View2) is returned with some other data from the database as a model.
[Code]....
Now, since I return a new view and not a action redirect the url is still http://url/View1 but everything works as it is supposed to.
When I submit the form in View2 it calls the View1 action method, not the View2 action method. Probably because the url is still View1.
