MVC :: Removing Automatically Appended Route Values From Html.ActionLink?
Aug 11, 2010
in my mvc2 application i have an action link like
[Code]....
docid is set to empty string because i want to clear ambient value of docid that is present in request context. i have gone through a lot of material on internet and even tried docid=String.Empty but it does not solve the problem and gives me url like /controller/action/id?docid=x. i also write a routeconstraint as suggested but it did not solve the problem either.clear those route values comming from request context with html.actionLink. i don't want to use html.routeLink
Global.asax route values routes.MapRoute( "Default", // Route name "{controller}/{action}/{id}", // URL with parameters new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional, filterDate = DateTime.Now.AddDays(-1), filterLevel = "INFO" } // Parameter defaults );
Here's my actionlink
@Html.ActionLink(item.MachineName, "Machine", new { id = item.MachineName, filterLevel = "hello" }, null)
When the filterlevel is specified in the actionlink, it generates a url like this: [URL] Which is the same page as I am currently on. If I change the actionlink to use a property other than one that has a default value in the route table (yes, if I use filterDate it messes up too), it generates a link like this:..............
I have a post-only action that has a different route. In my form, I need to post to it, but also keep the querystring values I currently have.
Initial response: /my/first/path/?val1=hello Needs to post to: /my/other/path/?val1=hello
It seems when I specify a route, it of course only returns the route and doesn't append the querystring values of my original page (for obvious reasons).Is it possible to cleanly append querystring values to my the action attribute of the form tag?
By default, links are created without the forward slash suffixed to the end. It is per our company standards to always have this trailing slash. Is it possible, via a configuration or whatever, to automatically have a forward slash whenever these methods are called?
And it works like a charm with a little help from custom MvcHttpHandler that sets current thread's UI culture on every request based on route value. My problem is how do I automatically add the language route value from current request to all outgoing links? E.g. when page /EN/Foo/Bar is requested, I would like this
And of course the same for all other helpers like BeginForm() etc. In my current code base there are already > 1000 occasions where these helpers are used, and requiring .AddRouteValue every time is very fragile as some developer will forget to use it with 100 % certainty. I hope the only solution is not creating custom Html helpers for everything?
I am getting int values from the stored procedure. But when i bind this datasource with the gridview i am seeing the values being converted into float. i am using Text='<% # Bind("Quantity") %' I wanna that to be displayed as int, with out zero'seg: let the value be 233, when i bind that its getting displayed as 233.00
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) %>
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?
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?
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?
Is there a way to stuff my ViewModel into an Ajax.ActionLink? edit I'd like to take my 5 search fields on my page which are bind to a view model and send it along my .ActionLink as my object value parameter.
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):
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.
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
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?
