What is the best way to add javascript at runtime from a view (or partialview)? For example i would like to build a partial view Banner.cshtml that use Banner.Js. Actually i am using a section into layout page but obviusly if i use 3 times the same partial view i have 3 reference to external Js. Is there a "best practice" to include Js from "child" elemnts like partial view in this case?
This question appear when I worked with partial view (MVC3/Razor), but I am sure - it's clear Razor Syntax question, not related direct to partial view. So - I have partial view Menu.cshtml with full markup as:
@model IEnumerable<SportsStore.WebUI.Models.NavLink> @foreach(var link in Model) { @Html.RouteLink(link.Text, link.RouteValues); }
No problem - "parent" view call it @{Html.RenderAction("Menu", "Nav");} and all work as magic. But, if I will edit the Menu.cshtml as:
@model IEnumerable<SportsStore.WebUI.Models.NavLink> @foreach(var link in Model) { Html.RouteLink(link.Text, link.RouteValues); }
(see - NO '@' before Html.RouteLink!) all just broke: now @{Html.RenderAction("Menu", "Nav");} output is totally empty, no one HTML tag. Want to know - what is the difference between two piece of code? I assume @ before foreach also automatically "drop into" and apply to Html.RouteLink as well? So - am I wrong?
What is the appropriate way of rendering a child template?And what's the difference? Both seem to work for me.And why does @Html.RenderPartial() no longer work?
Using the Razor engine how do I create Partial Views. Do I create a normal View and calling the PartialView() in the controller will only output the body content and when calling View() in the controller will output the full page with layout. If not, do I need to create specific Partial Views and then use RenderPartial in the View.
Why are Razor views not generated as partial classes? Making them partial classes gives us the option to have a code behind where we can do some of the stuff we're forced to do in the template itself in the code behind file.
Yes, I know the standard "go-to" thing is Html helper but I don't want to use Html helpers for these things as they are too specific to the view in question and besides, having a clutter of extension methods is just not the way to go.
I'd like to see Razor views generated as partial classes.
Im currently using a method that looks like the following code to add script and css files to the head of the Layout file.
[Code]....
My problem is that this is a static method meaning it persists the list of stylesheets and script files.
I need to do the same thing that this does but without keeping it persistant.
I need the lists to be remade on every request since they change from page to page what the look are on that specific page.
Is it possible to clear the lists on every request prior to adding the scripts that are needed or maybe after they have been rendered out?
Update:
The reason for not using a section, RenderPartial or RenderaActions is to prevent the same stylesheet or script file to be added more than once to the Layout file.
The site im building has a Layout_.cshtml with the basic layout. This in turn is used by a View that loops through a list of items and for each item a RenderAction is called that outputs the specific partial view for that item. These partial views sometimes need to add stylesheets and scripts.
As there can be needed to add many different scripts and stylesheets from different partial views a global list for styles and scripts were the only way i thought this could be done so there is a global place to check if a script is allready added to the collection or not and then render them all at once in the order they were added.
Update 2:
The real question is how to do the same kind of function (a global list) but without using a static Extension method.
I have looked all over for elegant solutions to this not so age-old question. How can I lock down form elements within an ASP.Net MVC View, without adding if...then logic all over the place? Ideally the BaseController, either from OnAuthorization, or OnResultExecultion, would check the rendering form elements and hide/not render them based on role and scope. Another approach I have considered is writing some sort of custom attributes, so as to stay consistent with how how we lock down ActionResults with [Authorize]. Is this even possible without passing a list of hidden objects to the view and putting if's all over? Other background info: We will have a database that will tell us at execution time (based on user role/scope) what elements will be hidden. We are using MVC3 with Razor Viewengine. We're utilizing a BaseController where any of the Controller methods can be overridden.
Members view (index) that lists members that users can select to show a partial view in the same view with details for the selected memberUses jquery (Ajax.ActionLink) to call a partial view method in the members controller to then load the members detail sectionWorks fine up to here....but I'd like to load the partial view with "member" details for a default or random member on initial load -- ie not through the Actionlink selectionHow do I invoke the partial view method on the initial load?
Let's say there is a textbox and a dropdownlist in mainview page, these two values are used by three partial views as well. when I use Html.RenderAction to post action to those three partial views, how to pass these two values to those partial views and in those views how to get these two values as a part of a object to send to database.
've created a Search partial view and it works, except for my view model. What i mean is, the partial view sends a string to my ActionResult Method, but only a string, that is not related to the view model that the partial view is built in. If i tell my ActionResult method to receive the view model in which the partial view is built in, it always tells me that i have null values. Here's my code This is my partial view:
[Code]....
Now here is my Model in my MoviesSearch view model:
I have added a jquery datepicker on my MVC view. This view has a partial view. I need to filter my partial view based on the datepicker's selected date. I need to show buttons on partial view based on the date.
I have added partial view like this:
div id="dvGames" class="cornerdate1"> % Html.RenderPartial("Partial3"); %> /div>
I have a partial view that is rendered on a view. That partial view has textboxes in it. The user can enter values into them.
I need to put all the values from the textboxes in my partial view into an array, and then give the view (the parent page rendering that partial view) access to that array.
Can i create a partial view and a controller that will feed data to the view, and if i render that partial in a Master page, the Data will show on whatever URL i am?
Or is there another way of showing content from database on every page(view)?
making my first steps with asp.net mvc and I actually create a (very) small website.I have 1 controller : TasksController1 view : Tasks/Index.aspx1 Partial View : Tasks/AvailableSorting.ascx In my controller I have 2 methods :
[Code]....
In my Tasks/Index.aspx, I add my partial view (<% Html.RenderPartial("AvaliableSorting"); %>)
That sounds simple. But, It just doesn't work : the Index return a list of Task and the parial view (should) return a list of string.The index.aspx works perfectly, but the partial view doesn't get the right model ! he gets the model of the Index page (list of Task).
"When a partial view is instantiated, it gets its own copy of the ViewDataDictionary object that is available to the parent view. The partial view therefore has access to the data of the parent view. However, if the partial view updates the data, those updates affect only the partial view's ViewData object. The parent view's data is not changed."Is there a common way around this? For instance I have a View containing two Partial Views (User Controls) that source the same data from the Parents ViewData. The first Partial View is able to update (add/delete) certain data from the Parents View Data, however the second Partial View sources the same data but obviously isn't reflecting the changes owing to the above MSDN statement.
I would like to add a partial view to my view page
The view page contain a mode name "<IEnumerable<JvTake1.Models.VortN>>
And the partial view contain a model name "<IEnumerable<JvTake1.Models.VideoL>>" So, theoretically I think they were suppose to work together but no Can any one guide me how to make it happen?
I have a view that displays all the records of my Roles table. I want to be able to click a Role record and have a list of users that pertain to that role displayed to the right of the Roles list. I'm sure I need to use a view model for this so I can get two sets of models in one view, but I'm not sure how to set up the view model.
Controller code:
[Code]....
Repository (userRep) code:
[Code]....
I can just as easily get the full user list with return db.Users;
So what method needs added to my repository and how should my view model look?
I am new to MVC coding, and currently try to migrate a legacy ASP.NET Web Form application into MVC. In Web Form I have several user controls, for example one control will be responsible to display a tree structure and user can select category from tree and do next step. In Web Form implemenation user control just raises the event to hosting web form, from there web form takes data to do whatever it needs to do.
While in MVC, I created correspodning partial view to display category data in a tree structure, I can display it, select node of tree without problem. But how can I let the hosting page/view know that some event is raisen from the partial view? What shall be the correct concept to handle this type of requirement?
There are different pages to reuse the same partial view, for example I may have following scenarios:
A category selection partial view in a user input page to trigger the input fields (quatity, date/time) to display and submit order. A category selection partial view in an admin page to trigger the display of invoice price, listing price and so on.
I have a partial view that has only a dropdown, i have called this partial view from a view. I can able to pass the model to this partial view and it renders successfully. However when some user selects a particular text from the dropdown, the corresponding value should be passed to view and it should be displayed in the label in view.
I am totally a new bee in asp.net mvc. Let me now explain my issue. I have a strongly typed view which inherits from a view model Document. I want to have a partial view in that view itself. My code for this purpose is :
I would like to create one view for my CRUD actions. The view contains 3 basic DIV updatetargets ("search form", "search result listing" and "action" (would be create,detail,edit,delete). Basic flow would be: "Search" updates the "Search Result Listing", click on CRUD actions in listing would show partial view in "action".
how do I call to refresh the "Listing" after I do any add/update/delete without having user click search again?
