MVC :: Posting Data From Partial View To Controller
Jan 13, 2011
Im having trouble with posting data from a view that also contains a partialview. Im using a viewmodel that has 2 objects in it. The data that comes from the view is correct and fine, but the data that im trying to get from the partialview is null, or rather the object is null. The partialview doesnt contain that much, the user can check/uncheck some checkboxes and thats it. Heres how the partialview looks like
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)?
I have a list of items(surveys) displayed on my home page. When I click the edit button for a particular item I have a modal pop up with the items details to edit. When the user clicks Save I submit the form via ajax. Depending on whether ModelState.IsValid == true I want to update the modal with validation information or close the modal and update the list of items with the new information.
This is how I am submitting the form:
[Code]...
My Questions
The only thing I can think to do is return JSON from my controller with a flag indicating the state of the ModelState.IsValid and the corresponding partial that I should show.
1) How would I do this?
2) Is there a better way?
Update
I found this: [URL]
but it seems more likely that I am going about the whole thing incorrectly.
I am new to ASP.NET MVC. I am using MVC 3 and my Issue is as below.Que 1I have created City Master using MVC where My first view is standard and Controller and Model are also standard nothing specific about it. Now when I want to create second view which will be of type partial view so It can be used with other views I am using same controller and model which I am using with first view. But when I try to instanciate the controller from PArtial view it shows non resolution of the controller. The same instanciation is working fine from my first view which is also using same controller.
I have view that dynamically adds multiple partial views with a foreach statement with the standard <%Html.RenderPartial("partialName", model); %> . The partial view control has just a label and textbox control. When I view the source html generated it correctly has a single form control around all the multiple labels and textboxes. My single submit button, inside the form though does not send any of the form data back to the controller though when using FormCollection.
I am using asp.net mvc 1.0. In this I have to create an UI for modifying the profile of the user. Now this modfiy profile will contain jquery tabs. and each jqeury tab will show some results such as user's personel information, professional info, etc on seperate tabs. I also want to give user ability to modify the fields and save this modified data. I am just not getting any idea how to do that. I have searched on internet for various jquery examples. most of them are just showing data to user by creating some partial views. Also i am not getting exactly how this functionality can be achieved through ajax on click of button.
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 search form on my site. I want to post the search term to my controller. I just have a question about [AcceptVerbs(HttpVerbs.Post)]. It seems to post the field name. Why can't I just get the value ?View:
[Code]....
Controller:
[Code]....
Result:
ViewData["SearchTerm"] contains the value : txtSearch=my search term
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'm working on a mvc project that builts a table of items and each row has a button to submit that row to the controller. Now each button has an id and I use hidden input to store the data in that column. How do I post the id to the controller? I use Html.beginform() at the beginning and a submit button. I want the ID to appear in the URL so I can extract the data based on that.
Also I can see that my values are posted but they don't show up in the query string. How do I get these values in the controller? The code is like this. [Code]....
I got a list of checkboxes on my form, and a jquery script that catch a button click to get all the selected items (in an array) and post to a controller action.
This is my script: (yes A, looked at your sample but cannot get this to work)
[Code]....
That alert will print out correctly (like 1,3,5).
However when the above post hit my controller action, "selectedInvestments" are null, which I can't figure out why (back to my tekpub jquery videos, can't go on like this)
I have a simple model where a Person has Gifts. I have a view which is a list of Gifts belonging to one Person.
My problem is with the Create action for a new Gift. I want it to default to the PersonID that we are already viewing the list of Gifts for. I tried simply passing the last PersonID (they are all the same)
Html.ActionLink("Create New", "Create", new { id = Model.Last().PersonID }) which works fine if there is already at least one Gift for that person but if this is the first Gift I don't have a value.
My Gift List controller knows the PersonID I want to pass but the view doesn't.
How do I pass this PersonID from my Gift List controller to my Gift Create controller via the Gift List view? Or is there a better way to do this?
have been unable to find any explanation of this anywhere.I have an .ascx partial view that's pulling data from a given model.I want to populate a drop-down list in my partial view using data from a table outside the model (it is in the same database and entity framework).I don't know the syntax (I'm pretty much just learning MVC2 and jquery), and don't even know where to start. I've gotten about as far as <% foreach step in [???] %>, but don't know what to do with it. What do I put in the "[???]"???
I´have this situation: I have a Master Page for all my pages.
Inside it I have a Partial Page that render the Main Menu of my site.
My question is how to pass a data from a Controller (For example AboutController) to the Menu so it can "knows" that in the "about" li, render an aditional class in it..
Normally is: <li>About</li>
But the About page: <li class="on">About</li>
I think that controllers must send this aprameter.. or not? how?
Hi, I have a partial view (using MVC2 .net) inside a view which is a form. the partial view has a textbox and is strongly typed.
The problem is I can't get the textbox data from the partial view when I post back, for some reason I can get all the view data inputs on the controller but the partial view, doesn't return the textbox data.
I have a page that I created using the Razor engine to allow updates to a database. One of the fields is a date time field, so I thought I'd try to implement a date picker.
So I was looking at a blog article here , and attepted to follow it through, and implement the suggestions within my code, but I get the following error"Value cannot be null or empty. Parameter name: name"
This is my main View
[Code]....
I read something about this being a bug in MVC2, but I'm using MVC3 and I was led to believe it had been fixed. Am I missing something here?
I have a website. there's master page with a menu implemented as a partial view Menu.ascx. This menu is a list of available categories which can be choosen. There's a separate controller for this view. the controller just gets all available categories from database and passes to the view as a list. here's the view's code
[Code]....
and controller for this view
[Code]....
there's other controller which is responsible to retrieve data for content page when one of categories is seletced.
[Code]....
So, i want somehow to get the current category in Menu.ascx.
I'm a php programmer (code igniter) but interested in learning ASP.net MVC, I have a few question regarding this new exciting framework In php codeigniter's controller I can easily catch a post variable using
[Code]....
In comparison in ASP.net MVC we can create an action method that will accept post variable (but the parameter can get very crowded if we're passing a lot)
[Code]....
Or using FormCollection
[Code]....
Is there a way to catch post variable in ASP.net that looks like php's codeigniter? I mean not by adding the parameter, because I wanted a controller method that is flexible in receiving post request A controller that can accept and process any post request like in php (where we don't have to put that parameter to the controller method, we just call them
I have setup an httppost that sends a string into my controller, searches for some results using linq, and then sends the results to a view. In debug stepping through the code I can see the data that I am looking for being passed into the return view statement, but the page just appears to refresh (it doesn't render the view as expected with the result). why my controller fails to redender the view? (note: I didn't include the view because I can send a ToList() to it without an issue. For example, return View(_entities.Persons.ToList());
[HttpPost] public ActionResult RenderSearch(string usersearchtext) { if (usersearchtext != null) { var search_results = from s in _entities.Persons where s.Description.Contains(usersearchtext) select s; return View("SearchResult", search_results.ToList()); } else { throw new NotImplementedException(); } }
So I have a dropdown in a form which when at item is selected postback to database and get some values which I am now storing in an object. I need to get the values from this object into textboxes on the form in the view..how can I do this???
I have a dictionary I'm passing to a View. I want to be able to pass the values of that dictionary back to a Controller action from this same View. Is there anyway this can be accomplished without using a form? The situation is that I need to be able to pass these back to a controller action that is called when a user clicks an ActionLink from the View, and in my experience an ActionLink cannot be used to submit a values of a form, i.e. I've only been able to submit values of a form using the form's submit button. Unless there's a way to use an ActionLink to submit values in a form.Controller Action passes Dictionary to Controller in ViewData:
public ActionResult ModifyNewCrossListing(FormCollection form) { Dictionary<int, string> prefixlist = new Dictionary<int, String>();
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?
