I know that to use link a view found in one view to one in another, i need to use;
[Code]....
But what if i want to link FROM an area to a view in the root of the site? This view is in the views folder found in the root, NOT in any area.
i have an actionlink that doesnt seem to work as it should.
i am trying to pass a parameter to a URL that is in a different area and it isnt carrying the parameter.
[Code]....
the link generated is;
localhost/user/vacancy/details
whereas what i want is;
localhost/user/vacancy/details/6
I am using the following code in my master page:
<% Html.RenderAction("RecentArticles","Article"); %>
where the RecentArticles Action (in ArticleController) is :
[ChildActionOnly]
public ActionResult RecentArticles()
{
var viewData = articleRepository.GetRecentArticles(3);
return PartialView(viewData);
}
and the code in my RecentArticles.ascx partial view: <li class="title"><span><%= Html.ActionLink(article.Title, "ViewArticle", new { controller = "Article", id = article.ArticleID, path = article.Path })%></span></li>
The problem is that all the links of the articles (which is built in the partial view) lead to the same url- "~/Article/ViewArticle" . I want each title link to lead to the specific article with the parameters like I'm setting in the partial view.

View 2 RepliesI am using MenuBuilder with code like this:
public static MenuItem MainMenu(UrlHelper url)
{
Menu.DefaultIconDirectory = url.Content("~/Public/Images/");
Menu.DefaultDisabledClass = "disabled";
Menu.DefaultSelectedClass = "current";
return Menu.Begin(
Menu.Items("",
Menu.Action<HomeController>(p => p.Index(), "Home")
),
Menu.Items("",
Menu.Secure<HomeController>(p => p.About(), "About")
),
Menu.Items("",
Menu.Action<RegulationController>(p => p.Index(null), "Compliance")
)/* This is in the Compliance area */
).SetListClass("menu");
}
But I am also using MvcContib Areas and in the code above the final menu item is in an 'Area' called 'Compliance'.
(There are two other areas in the Mvc application and the first in the list of registered areas is called 'Legislation')
What happens is the following:
When a page is rendered (I am using the standard WebFormsViewEngine) the Urls are all rendered using the 'Legislation' area!!?
E.g. http://localhost:1337/Legislation/Home or http://localhost:1337/Legislation/Home/About
and finally http://localhost:1337/Legislation/Regulation
The first two links should not pick up the 'Legislation' area. The last menu item should be in the 'Compliance' area.
How do I prevent the erroneous Area (Legislation) being rendered on the first two links?
How do I get the MenuBuilder markup in the Site.Master to accept an 'area' attribute or get it picked up automatically from the Controller for each link?

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?
Is not a lot of fun of yielding much success at the moment.
When I copy my web site on the local machine some of the CSS classes in my themes are not applied. Although not major, I am concerned at what may be causing this.
My real problem is regard the root of the site. On my personal machin, I have set the root of my site using the tilde syntax. However, the root of the web site on my host's ftp site is wwwroot.
Does this mean that I need to change a setting somewhere for the page to be recognised?
How do you use and Html.ActionLink to go to an external site?

View 1 RepliesI am a PHP developer and have been asked to make some slight amendments to an ASP.net site. I can make these amendments but the biggest challenge seems to be getting the actual site up and running on my own server! I have a had lots of errors with regards to the paths to files, as the website is linked absolutely to the root folder and on my development server I cannot have the files at the root. I have therefore worked my way through some of the files making the paths relative so I can at least see some of the site running but then I came across this error:
CS0103: The name 'Data' does not exist in the current context
Line 5: protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs args)
Line 6: {
Line 7: rptNews.DataSource = Data.NewsArticle.GetLatestNews(3);
Line 8: rptNews.DataBind();
Line 9: }
I assume this is something to do with data being called from a database. How to get the site and database up and running as I have no idea where to start and feel I am going round in circles.
On a MVC 3 site I have a area named "CMS" on on CMSAreaRegistration I have:
[Code]....
All the CMS controller are under the namespace Site.CMS.Controllers And in Global.Asax I have:

The CMS routes seem to work as expected. But the following link on my site root:
[Code]....
I tried many options to try to solve it but I always get something wrong.
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?
We have a large mvc2 project and just added an area to it. Now some of the paths in our forms are messed up. We are using Strongly Typed actionlinks and formextensions. Please look at the following demo: [URL] The form on this page is incorrectly submitting to the area. I think it's related to routing or just the way that area's are figured out when it's not specified.
View 5 RepliesI'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 RepliesSo my website works great on my local computer. It also works fine when I use the Copy Web Site feature in Visual Web Developer 2010 Express. But I do not want all of my files and the default.aspx to be sitting at the root of my domain name. I want it to be in a subfolder.
So again, it works fine when it's sitting at www.domainname.com
But when I use my FTP program to move the files to:
www.domainname.com/subfolder/
I get an error when I try to visit the site. It's just a general runtime error and does not display the specific error message. It obviously must have something to do with when I MOVE the files/folders from the root of the domain to the subfolder?

Can the entire content area of a site be an update panel? I like the idea of the header and navigation not blinking when the content page changes.
Can this be done by putting an update panel as the first element of the content pages or having a update panel wrap the content placeholder in the master page?

I've got webform routing setup on my asp.net webforms 3.5sp1 project. I would like to have the files for the site in a directory called content including the home page as I would like to run multiple sites using the same system. In MVC there is a blank default page and the home page is in a folder called home. I can't seem to replicate this behaviour using web form routing but would like to. The blank page is always hit first. the route handler is hit second - it recognises that the request is for the home page and sets up the routing page but is not used. the route handler code is simple:
public string VirtualPath { get; private set; }
public IHttpHandler GetHttpHandler(RequestContext
requestContext)
{
string file = requestContext.RouteData.GetRequiredString("File");
string id = requestContext.RouteData.GetRequiredString("Id");
string queryString = "?menuid=" + id;
VirtualPath = "~/" + file;
HttpContext.Current.RewritePath(
string.Concat(
VirtualPath,
queryString));
var page = BuildManager.CreateInstanceFromVirtualPath
(VirtualPath, typeof(Page)) as IHttpHandler;
return page;
}
Is there anyway I can do this?

url = url.Remove(0, 1);
}
System.Web.Routing.RouteTable.Routes.Add(
new System.Web.Routing.Route(url,
new RouteValueDictionary(new {File = x.FileName,
Id = x.Id.ToString()}),
new CoreRouteHandler()));
