then I would like to set the class for the li according to the controller value. How do I do that?
Something like: if controller == "home", then set the class for the li with the home id to active.
I just started learning MVC and am very new to the syntax. when you respond to this posting provide syntax, as I am coming from code behind background.
Lets say I have a simple controller for ASP.NET MVC I want to test. I want to test that a controller action (Foo, in this case) simply returns a link to another action (Bar, in this case).How would you test TestController.Foo? (either the first or second link)
My implementation has the same link twice. One passes the url throw ViewData[]. This seems more testable to me, as I can check the ViewData collection returned from Foo(). Even this way though, I don't know how to validate the url itself without making dependencies on routing.The controller:
public class TestController : Controller { public ActionResult Foo()[code].....
Using Visual Web Developer 2010 Express. I was used to creating a web app anytime and I would get a default page for starters and be happy. But today I find that when I pick either the ASP.NET Web Site or ASP.NET Web Application templates I get site.master and a bunch of site admin files that I don't want. Alternately when I select the empty versions of those templates, I get almost nothing at all. An almost empty web.config page and no Default.aspx page. There is nothing magical about having a default.aspx page in place, but it is an indicator of a change when I can only get a virtually completely empty website or a website with a bunch of bells and whistles I don't want.
Also, for some reason, when I create a new app or website as just noted, in the Solution Explorer I get aspx.designer.cs files showing as well as web.config files for both debug and release. Somehow some settings and templates must have changed, or am I missing something here? How can I get my settings/templates to go back to the way they were?
@Html.ActionLink("Add a bill", "Create", new { controller = "Bill"}); This is the code I used to add an link to Create method in Bill controller. But in the view I saw Add a bill (/Bill/Create): So, how can I remove the brackets? (/Bill/Create). And, I also want this link to act as a button instead of a , how can I do that?
I know I can use Html.ActionLink(...) from my view to render an anchor tag with a link to an action. I know I can call RedirectToAction(...) from the controller to immediately call another action. But what I'd like to do (and don't know how), is get an action link from within the controller. I am building up a breadcrumb and want the link to an action. So I don't want to immediately jump to the action (as with RedirectToAction), but just get what the link would be.
Is it possible to invoke an action on asp.net mvc controller programmatically from a classic webforms page that is not handled by MVC but running in the same web application?
We have a mixed asp.net web application: webforms for page rendering and mvc for ajax calls. But we want to render some MVC views from webform page on the server via the code (not a web request)...
Currently we are doing a web request locally to get the rendered view: is it the right/only way?
I'm starting with ASP.NET MVC (1.0). I have a problem to resolve. I have developed a web applicaton (an application of articles like e-commerce) with a head (logo and menu). I have defined the head (logo and menu) in the Master page (site.master). Now, I must display the number of articles in the head in a field (like the number of articles in the virtual basket in the e-commerce). I can read the number of articles in the data base (in the controller), but i can't integrate it in the master page.
My computer system froze on me, the mouse froze, cntrl-alt-del, did nothing, so I reset it. Did a disk check, and now everything seems fine except for my master Page html code which I was in the middle of editing when it happened. The VB code-behind file is still ok, the designer file still shows ok with all of the controls in it, but I can't get into desgn or source view. It just opens and gives a whole page of hesixecimal code such as as:
i am currently working on an asp.net mvc 2 web app and would like to add some ajax functionality on my delete item actions.Show, on the list items displayed view page, i wrapped the list items inside a partial view and added an ajax delete action link for each item (inside a foreach loop):
[Code]....
On the AjaxDeleteItem ajax controller action, i delete the selected item and redisplay the updated items list (via UpdateTargetId = "divList", where the list items partial view resides).My question is how i could insert Antiforgery token in such a scenario in order to secure delete operations from CSRF and XSRF attacks.
I have an action link that I use to pass values to a controller using this statement:
<%: Html.ActionLink("Addition 1 to 10", "CreatePdf", "Pdf", new { id = 32, stOperation = "Add", stNumbers = "10" }, null)%>
So when a user clicks on the above link the controller CreatePDF is called with the parameters of id, stOperation, and stNumbers. I then use these three parameters to return a pdf document to the user.I also have a checkbox on the html page as defined by:
<%: Html.CheckBox("chkAnswers", false) %>
My question is how to pass the value of this checkbox in the above HTML.ActionLink? I have a tutorial on using the submit button to submit an entire form and the associated data. However I do not want the user to have to click a button. Instead I'd like return the value of the checkbox in the action link but I'm not sure how to do this. I want something like:
%: Html.ActionLink("Addition 1 to 10", "CreatePdf", "Pdf", new { id = 32, stOperation = "Add", stNumbers = "10", checkboxValue = true or false }, null)%>
But what's baking my noodle is trying to figure out how to programmatically set a checkbox to checked.
The scenario is I have some rows in a GridView that are associated to another value in a dropdown. So, when I select the value in the dropdown, I'd like the checkboxes in the GridViewRows that are associated with that value to be already checked.
Problem: The check value is not persisted in the database. There's no field for it. The checkbox on the GridViewRows is an ASP TemplateField.
So I iterate through the rows and would like to check whichever checkboxes I need to based on whatever condition.
I am using YAF as my online forum. I've synched user account databases between YAF and my own application, but call 'Membership.Providers["YafMembershipProvider"].CreateUser' at the same time as I create my own members. However, there's a problem... My users are identified by email address for logon. So now the forum shows everyone's email addresses.
YAF has an option called 'display name'. Is it possible to programmatically create this as well?
I have navigation and many link on my webproject from html action links. They are ugly with underline. I would like to insert some image with name or play with styles of action link.Is it possible? How to do that?
I am currently trying to make an html submit occur, but using the MVC helper method ActionLink as I do not want it to be a button, I want it to be an underlined link like the rest on my page. This is what I have currently
[Code]....
This jumps back to my action fine, but all the domains that are checked off to be deleted are not sent back. (if I use this,
[Code]....
it works fine so I know it's not something wrong with submitting or retrieving the check boxes)
I have one problem with actionlink. My Example is: i have one view(xyz.aspx) and controller(abc.vb) , in this view i put below line
<%=Html.ActionLink("Manage", "Index", "Advertisement", New With {.aintCampaignid = Cam.CampaignID})%>
I have another view(Index.aspx) and controller(Advertisement.vb) if click on manage link in XYZ view it will call to advertisement controller and index function But iam getting [URL] it wont call.
Ive been moving my site using forms over to MVC and have 2 html.action links in the default.master to MVC pages in the in the home folder that work just fine but when i add another mvc page in the home folder named links.aspx the application cant find the page from the html actionlink
[Code]....
there are no differences i can see in the pages that do show up and the one that cant be found (links.aspx).
there is no difference in the way ive written the link in the master.
I need about 6 or 7 of these links on the master to pages in the home folder.
I have a master page containing a tree and 3 dropdown lists. I am populating a context menu on right click of each node, and when clicked on any item of the context menu, it navigates to required pages.
My problem is after navigating to the required page, the selected values from the drop down lists and the selected node from the tree are getting cleared.
I can set the selected values for the dropdown lists by making some properties in master page. But how do i maintain the selected node?
In my content page, i have got the valuepath of the right clicked node.
Or is there any other way than setting the properties in master page?
I'm trying to find out if there is a way to have a action link that can be view(!) ( and use )Only by logged user with super Permissions?I would like to have a delete action link but I do not want all user to view this link (or to use)About the use I know I can use [Authorize] and declare the user but can I also hide the action link in the page?Or do I need (just for this to use area ?)
