I am trying to add an item selected class to an Html.ActionLink, I am very new to MVC so its all a bit confusing.So far i have each of my ActionLinks lookins like this
[Code]....
Can any one tell where i am going wrong because the links now fail to respond, basically it isn't checking the condition == Home and if it is then its failing because it doesn't get to the controller.
Is it possible to use a condition inside an actionlink ?I would like to do this :
[Code]....
This will be used for some column sorting and if the current sort was asc the next sort has to be desc. The code above is not valid while compiling.
I have a Microsoft MVC project with an action "Foo" whose view ("Foo.aspx") contains the lines:
<%= Html.ActionLink("mylinktext1", "bar") %>
<%= Html.ActionLink<MyController>(x => x.Bar(), "mylinktext2") %>
When I hit this from a web browser or load it from an AJAX call, it properly returns:
<a href="/bar">mylinktext1</a>
<a href="/Bar">mylinktext2</a>
But when I call the action from another view like this:
<% Html.RenderAction<MyController>(x => x.Foo()); %>
Then the links are rendered without targets.
<a href="">mylinktext1</a>
<a href="">mylinktext2</a>
Why would this be happening, and how do I work around it?
Im using the HTML.TreeView to render my code structure like this :
<%= Html.TreeView("CategoryTree",
Model.CategoryList,
l => l.ChildList,
l => l.Name + " / <a id="treeLnk" + l.Id + "" href="JavaScript: OpenAddDialog('" + l.Name + "', " + l.Id + ") " title="Lägg till" >Lägg till</a>" +
" / <a id="treeLnk" + l.Id + "" href="JavaScript: OpenChangeNameDialog('" + l.Name + "', " + l.Id + ") " title="Ändra namn" >Ändra namn</a>" +
" / <a id="treeLnk" + l.Id + "" href="JavaScript: OpenDeleteDialog('" + l.Name + "', " + l.Id + ") " title="Tabort" >Tabort</a>") %>
This work fine, but now I need to include a action that redirects to another controlleraction.
I have tried to ad a Html.ActionLink but this does not work?
So, most of the MVC examples I find are C#, so I seem to have trouble finding samples ....(bear with me, I'm a newbie) with that said, if anyone can point me in the right direction,
I simply want to be able to apply htmlattributes / styles to my select box
[Code]....
I am using the following code to create a static menu, but using images instead of text..
[Code]....
how to perform an image swap on hover and also an image swap on click so that it is clear which menu item has been selected?
Html.ActionLink("<span class="title">Retry</span><span class="arrow"></span>", "Login", "User")
If I execute above code in ASP.Net MVC 2, I get the following output on my screen:
How do I disable the escaping of the code, so my span is within the ActionLink, and not displayed as output?
I know this is expected behavior, to keep it safe, but I want it to interpret the HTML code I pass as a parameter.
I wish to return the following output
<a href="#"><img src="/images/icons/tick.png" alt="" />More info</a>
If i do the following the content is html encoded.
<%= Html.ActionLink("<img src='/images/icons/tick.png' />More info", "OrderRegion", "Campaign", new {id = Model.Campaign.Id}, null) %>
How can i disable the html encoding?
I have been searching to find a way to convert .docx word
documents into html pages, which is fine there are loads of tools to do this. What I want to do however is extract content and apply our custom style for our website, For EG: we have a custom style for the UL Tags and tables to style them in line with our website. Is this possible to do during the conversion process or does it have to be done afterwards?
I'm pretty new to ASP.Net / MVC 2. Can anyone explain how to use the Html.ActionLink thing? I understand that the first parameter is the displayed text, but for the second one, what is the action name?
View 1 RepliesI have a sql-bound formview with three DDL's bound to individual SQL datasources. In edit mode, I want to set the selected value to the formview's value, and this works:
<asp:DropDownList
ID="ddl2"
runat="server"
DataSourceID="ddl2lDS"
DataValueField="Name"
SelectedValue='<%# Eval("Name") %>'
/>
But it only works when there's a match between what's in the formview's DS and the DDL's DS.
Unfortunately, there may be instances where the the formview's DS may return a null value or a value different from the DDL's datasource...and when that happens I receive a compilation error like:
'ddl2' has a SelectedValue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items.
Parameter name: value
What do I need to do to trap that condition before attempting to set the selected value? Do I need to set the selected value of the DDL in formview's dataBinding or dataBound event, by looping through the DDL and checking for a match first?
Sure could use some guidance and clarification here. This is an ASP.NET 3.5 app built with VS2008.The data is provided through a strongly typed dataset and TableAdapters containing Ad Hoc queries. A requirement on the project was recently modified. Previously, this query was used to select records based on a specified ZoneID:
[Code]....
The requirement now is that if no ZoneID is selected, the page passes a value of 0, it ignores the WHERE statement and selects all records. Otherwise, it passes the integer value to ZoneID and selects all records associated with that ZoneID.
I have tried several variations including CASE statements in the WHERE clause and surrounding the entire query. I also tried [Code]....
By including a SET statement in SQL Server Management Studio, this works. However, Ad Hoc queries in TableAdapters do not support DECLARE statements.
This also did not work: [Code]....
And neither did this: [Code]....
I have an ActionLink: <%: Html.ActionLink("MyAction", "MyAction") %> I would like to use a button instead. Something like this: <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="MyAction" /> What do I need to do to make clicking the button perform the same action as clicking the ActionLink?

Over the past 3 days I've been trying to do everything in MVC. I want to learn this awesome technology.
I have just faced a problem with Html.ActionLink and I can't figure it out ! Here is what I have in my Home Index View:
[Code]....
I was reading the ASP.NET MVC Best Practices article by Rashid, and got stuck in his description of creating UrlHelper extensions. Doing this is easy enough, and I've adopted the practice into all of my projects. I noticed, however, that Rashid used Url.Content to generate the url for the home page, and Url.RouteUrl for all the other urls. Why is this? What is the difference between the two?
The link to the blog post is here:
http://weblogs.asp.net/rashid/archive/2009/04/01/asp-net-mvc-best-practices-part-1.aspx
I've used Html.ActionLink in my Views, but I'm wondering what difference it would be if I used Url.RouteUrl instead. Does anyone have a good grasp of what makes these helpers different, and where they are best used?
I assume this link is correct
Html.ActionLink("Edit", "Edit" , new {Controller = "Item", id = item.Product_GUID});
the books tell me things i have read etc.i should render html as <a href="/Edit/Item?id=foo>Edit</a>
I am sending them to "another controller" to edit the item...
But this is not rendering the hyperlink in my browser, UGH....
this code is in a ascx page so i can call it with partialaction.
All i can think is that its not working because its 5am and i have been up since 9am yesterday..

View 2 Replieshow to insert image in html.actionlink - asp.net mvc? i did it so, but it doesnt works.
<a href="<%= Html.ActionLink("search", "Search", new { searchText = "txtSearch" }, null); %>">

I have a route (the first one listed) which looks like this:
routes.MapRoute(
"TopicRoute", // Route name
"forums/{forumSlug}/{topicSlug}", // URL with parameters
new { controller = "Forums", action = "Topic"} // Parameter defaults
);
I can browse to: /forums/my-forum/my-topic and the page loads fine. Yet I have a Html.ActionLink that looks like: @Html.ActionLink(item.Title, "Topic", new { forumSlug ="my-forum", topicSlug = "my-topic" }) And it won't generate the correct link syntax for me? It generates: <a href="">My Topic</a>
I'm having problems getting my CSS class to style an actionlink inside a html.partial. In building my test site, I've used the template beginning from ASP.NET and the standard login portion. My Index page works fine as the _Layout.cshtml does reference my css page. In _LogOnPartial, I have the following listed (there is more but this is what's important I believe):
else {
<text>
<ul style="display:inline;">;
<li style="list-style:none; display:inline;">
@Html.ActionLink("Sign In", "LogOn", "Account", null, new { @class = "signin" })
</li>
My CSS for "signin" is:
.signin {
text-decoration: none;
font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
font-weight: bold;
color: White;
}
When I look at the source for the page after debugging, it shows:
<a class="signin" href="/Account/LogOn">Sign In</a>
That looks right but it's not showing it correctly. The font isn't Helvetica and it is underlined and not white. I don't reference the css sheet in the LogOnPartial but I didn't think I'd have too.
as part of my web app i have a series of buttons created using HtmlActionlink e.g
<%=Html.ActionLink("Swap User",
"Index","Home")%></td>
However my buttons need to be translated into difrent languages depending on the country the user is in Im translating the button lable text fine in my controller and passing it into the view , but now im alittle stumped over syntax Id like to replace "Swap User" above with
<%=Html.Encode(ViewData["swapUser"]) %>
but im failing miserably finding the right syntax
I've never been able to understand why it is that some things are made in a particular way, and Html.ActionLink is one of these. In Global.asax, if I want to create a route, it has the format:
[Code]....
The order of the necessary parameters here is "name/controller/action/extra params". When using Html.ActionLink, the parameter order is "name/action/controller/extra params", which is much the same but with two of them switched around. To make things more confusing, the rendered html from the Html.ActionLink has the original order "controller/action/extra params" with the name inside of the anchor tag. Why do this? It's easy enough to memorize that the order is switched for absolutely no reason I can discerne, but why do it in the first place?
