How To Persist A Model Across Multiple Requests In MVC 2
Jan 3, 2011
I'm building a web application that has a particular model representing some events. Users need to be able to add N number of people to a given event. Choosing people is handled by a partial view.
I'm trying to build a menu that displays when users click "add a person" to the event. Because the event hasn't been filled out completely yet, there is nothing in the database to persist between requests.
I also have validation logic on the event page.
My proposed solution is to add the form to search or add for people on the event form itself and have a submit button that sends the values that have been added back to the server, where I can store them in ViewData or Session.
Unfortunately, doing this flags the validation.
My second solution is to load a partial view responsible for loading the UI to add/search for a person. I could add a little code on the method in the controller that returns a partial view storing the existing data in a session variable or viewdata. Trouble is, I have to submit the form to do it--again tripping the validation!
I'm wondering if perhaps I chose the wrong tool to do this...because in webforms, there would probably be a postback and you would just perform an operation on that postback. I'd like to avoid rewriting the application in webforms and am wondering if there are ways I'm overlooking in ASP.NET MVC.

in Telerik ASP.NET MVC TabStrip, I want the page to remember which tab was selected last and persist the selection through multiple page requests.
What I have is a partial view that shows in multiple pages and it contains the TabStrip. With SelectedIndex the set tab always get selected, which nullifies user's selection.

I have a website that needs to store two sets of user data into separate data stores. The first set of data is used by the SiteCore CMS and holds information about the user. The second set of data is used by a personalisation application that stores its own user data. The reason they aren't stored together in the same profile object is because the personalisation application is used across multiple websites that do not all use SiteCore.
I am able to create multiple Profile Providers - I currently have one from SiteCore and a custom provider that I have written and these both work in isolation. The problem exists when you try to configure both in the same web.config file. It seems you can only specify a single Profile object in the web.config file, rather than one for each provider. This means that regardless of which provider is being used the .Net framework sends through the profile object that is specified in the "inherits" parameter in the profile section of the web.config file.
My questions are - Is it possible to specify a different Profile object for each Profile Provider? If so, how and where is this specified?
-edit-
I should point out that there is no duplication of data in the two data sets, they are mutually exclusive (excluding email address). The SiteCore data is used solely for this website, but we have company wide profile data that spans across all of our applications, hence the need for a separate second profile object.

I have a form which inserts data in DB on Submit button click but the problem is when client click the button multiple times its sends multiple create requests means multiple button click events for the same time of same data, which must not be.
I tried to disable the button when client click the Submit button first time but after this it does not call server click event handler or not fire the server click event once it got disabled.
How to handle this multiple click problem..
I used the following code to disable the button

Imagine a website where individual clients can see each-other's presence - like a social network or a chatroom.
For example:
Client1 connects to my website.The back-end C# code updates a static field to indicate Client1's presence.
Client2 connects to my website.Will the back-end C# code for the second request see the information stored in the static field from the first request? Is there anything I need to do to guarantee that these seperate instances of my ASP application are sharing static data?

Is it possible to send multiple HTTP requests asynchronously to an ASP.NET web site or any other web server using .NET ? And, then. collect responses from those requests as they come using .NET asynchronous paradigm ? Is it possible ? Or would there still be limit of max 2 HTTP connections from .NET using HTTP ?

Ok I hope I can describe this clearly. This is all demo code nothing in production.Right now I have a stored procedure that is
[Code]....
This will return only one row as ID is uniquethen I have a procedure that gets all the colors that are available for this model number and i use that data in a drop down list, it is like this
[Code]....
this can return multiple rows with different colors.Right now i am opening a connection getting the product data, consuming that to properties of a class, then to get the data from the Colors I open another connection run the procedure with the model parameter being the model returned from the first sproc and bind that to my ddl.I want to do this in one connection and just get two result sets back. So how do I set the parameter of the second procedure to be the model from the first?

I have a small project I am working on using web developer express, and I am trying to get windows authentication to work with my intranet website project. This website is only to be accessed inside my LAN and not from the internet at all, so I figured windows authentication would be best.What happens when I turn it on (and I've tested this from multiple browsers: IE8, Firefox, Chrome, Safari) is that the website asks the user to log in (via pop up textbox). Not only does it request the user to log in (which I don't think it should, since the login is based on windows authentication and I am on a windows machine already logged into the internal domain) but it requests the user to login multiple times, sometimes I get asked to log in and type in the same username/password combination 12 different times. It seems to me that the asp page is requesting permission to view each individual element and requires authentication to load one object (like an image or text box).
I am severely annoyed. :( I just wanted authentication to work smoothly without any login requests, or at the mostone request.

we have this web service that sends JSON code to an iPhone application.
Each time the app makes a request, the web serice accesses the database, grabs corresponding xml data, transforms it to JSON code and then sends it back to the app.
the xml data gets updated approximately every minute, you can assimiliate this process with a sport app of which you can watch live game commentaries.
Now the iPhone app is going to implement a refresh button which a user can proactivly hit it against the service to fetch the latest data.
So we need to implement something that is capable of handling multiple requests that could occur at the same time or in a very short period of time.

I've got a WCF web service that runs fine at the moment but there is talk about using it very heavily soon. As part of it's normal process it writes a file out, then reads it back in again (don't ask why, I know it's stupid). I'm concerned that if we start hitting it with lots of requests then the following might happen.
1. Request 1 writes the file out.
2. Request 2 comes in and overwrites the file.
3. Request 1 reads the file back in but this is now the wrong file.
My understanding is that the requests would naturally queue up so that request 2 wouldn't start until request 1 had finished, but I'm not totally sure.

I'm creating a page that makes multiple AJAX form posts without a page refresh.
I would like to use the ASP.NET MVC HTML.AntiForgeryToken() helper to secure the form against CSRF attacks. I think that each form on the page can share the same token, but will it allow multiple requests with the same token? If not is there a way to get a new token or some other way to secure the forms?

I'm using HttpContext.Current.Items to make a Per-Request Cache Store. I'm hitting to many Cache entries over different http requests.
It seems that HttpContext.Current.Items is reused across multiple http requests. Is it normal?

I have a aspx page. Users can perform an action on that page. but that actions goes through series of other actions. for example- suppose there is JOin Community link on that page. When user clicks He is asked to Login/Register(A) THEN He is asked to fill up a brief profile(B) THEN he is asked to join community as member/admin etc (C). So there are 3 actions. ALL are to be done on popups/model dialogs (user remains on same page). and I want to create separate controls/pages for all of these steps for reusability.
I dont want to write HTMLS/server side code of all steps-A, B, C on page itself and I want proper interaction of all model dialogs with page so that depending upon his actions I can decide to show him B C or D dialog box anytime. Suppose user fills some invalid information on step B I should be able to show him step B again after all databse checks with a proper error message so that he can continue from same point where he made error.
How to do this?

I have a Order view with 2 user controls in it.
The first user control in the view is just to validate the customer and get some more details about the customer. This control is having one text box (customer name) with the button. When the user clicks the button it should validate the customer name in the client side using data annotations of customer model. if validation success then it should use some bussiness logic to verify the customer and show the customer details on the form.
The 2nd user control in the view is to get the address of the customer by searching for the house no and the postcode. This control is having 2 text box with the button.
The first user control is based on the strongly typed customer entity
The 2nd user control is bsed on the strongly typed address entity
The view with both the user control is based on the strongly typed order entity.
The issue here is with the validation. I have the validation summary in the view and client sider validation is enabled. When i click the search button on the first user control the client validation starts and throws validation error messages because when i search for the customer at that point of time i will not have values to may of the customer related fields in the order view.
The same thing happen when i click the search button on the 2nd view. It will throw client side validation for other fields.
What i want to achive is that when the user click the search button on the user control 1 then the validation should happen only to the customer name field (both in client and server).
When the user click the search button on the 2 nd user control the the validation should happen only for houseno and the postcode both in client and the server.
When the user clicks the save button on the order view all the fields in the form even the controls usere input fields should get validated. How to achive this in mvc?

It's a multi-model view, and I'm achieving this through an IList<Book>. Each Book has a Title and an Author
So for example if I wanted to make 3 Books:
[code]....
However, I want to be able to generate such a form for any number of Books. I've done this before in Ruby on Rails through JavaScript and rendering partials, but I don't think I can render a partial in this case because the form changes (the index of the book has to increment for it to work)
EDIT: I'm looking for a way to do this in the Create view in particular. So in this case I don't have a list of books, but I'm building it.
A user should be able to click on a link that says "Add another item" and a form for another book should be appended to the bottom.

I have a parent View that uses a few partial views. Each partial view has its own custom model. The parent View is a model containing each of the partial view's model. In other words this parent View model is NOT flat.
How do i get POST data to bind with the parent's model object? Do i have to write a custom model binder?
Update I'm not binding to a collection of objects of the same type (ie: a collection of uploaded files). I'm binding to object that contains multiple of objects. For example:

I'm fairly new to all this, but have slowly been teaching myself C# and ASP.net MVC over the past year or so...I really tried to search for this, but haven't been able to find anything - it may be I'm using the wrong terminology!I'm using ASP.NET MVC2 with EF4 connected to a SQL Express db. Situation: Without getting into too much specifics, I have one table called 'Plan.' Under 'Plan' are several different categories that are related to a single Plan item [say Category A, Category B, Category C and Category D]. Each 'Category X' table has a beginDate, endDate and other details specific to that category.
I'd like to be able to create a summary page that combines all items from Category A, Category B, Category C, and Category D and sorts by beginDate - but only need a few of the columns [eg - begin/end date, name, id].

I have a complex page with several forms on it. The page is divided into sections, and each section has a continue button on it. The page is bound to a pageViewModel, each section addresses a different set of properties on the model. The continue button makes an ajax call to the controller, and the model binder binds it appropriately to the appropriate sections of the model. The section is refreshed appropriately. Finally, I would like to have a save button at the bottom of the page that takes all the forms, and binds all of the forms to the model. The model, at this point has all of the properties filled out, and can be processed accordingly. Can I accomplish this by some ASP MVC magic?

I have one view page (MyView.aspx) and many data sources to bind on this page. Lets say it has Books, Publishers, Comments, etc. Each one of those has an object which provides a List, List, etc. In my view, what are my optiosn for multilple model biding? I want to check to see if each one is empty, and then enumerate it. But I can't check Model.Count() because wouldn't Model be made of all those objects if I set the page to inheriet from? What are my options? Should I load each content area in a control/partial view? Or can I just dump each object into ViewData and then check the count by casting in the view?

It should be simple; although I'm having a hard time to figure out the best way to do it. I've MVC2 pages with multiple forms on the same page having different functionalities.
What's the best way to handle this; including the MVC2 way of validation from the model?
