I have a MVC3 project using Area in it.the struct of web site si ' top - middle - bottom'the middle layer is divided into left and right partat the left part , I want to write codes as public to use, but '_ViewStart.cshtml' in the Area it's point to the '_Layout.cshtml' file at '~/Views/Shared/' my problem is how to use another cshml file as '_Layout.cshtml'
In the default ASP.NET MVC 3 project, layout & partial cshtml files start with an underscore (eg. _viewstart, _Layout, _LogOnPartial). Why? Does the framework give some special meaning to a cshtml file that begins with an underscore?
I'm attempting to access a layout page in an MVC page like this:
[Code]....
The problem is that I get this error:
he layout page "/Shared/_Layout.cshtml" could not be found at the following path: "/Shared/_Layout.cshtml".

Not sure why this is a problem, I was referencing this page:
This question appear when I worked with partial view (MVC3/Razor), but I am sure - it's clear Razor Syntax question, not related direct to partial view. So - I have partial view Menu.cshtml with full markup as:
@model IEnumerable<SportsStore.WebUI.Models.NavLink> @foreach(var link in Model) { @Html.RouteLink(link.Text, link.RouteValues); }
No problem - "parent" view call it @{Html.RenderAction("Menu", "Nav");} and all work as magic. But, if I will edit the Menu.cshtml as:
@model IEnumerable<SportsStore.WebUI.Models.NavLink> @foreach(var link in Model) { Html.RouteLink(link.Text, link.RouteValues); }
(see - NO '@' before Html.RouteLink!) all just broke: now @{Html.RenderAction("Menu", "Nav");} output is totally empty, no one HTML tag. Want to know - what is the difference between two piece of code? I assume @ before foreach also automatically "drop into" and apply to Html.RouteLink as well? So - am I wrong?
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?
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 hybridized my web forms application and I am in the midst of creating pages but my add coontroller dialog and or add view is tuff is missing. How can I get this linked up in my project. When I create a from scratch MVC application all that stuff appears.
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 have the following code and wanted to know how to use the ActionLink par to to a page with a seperate controller/view and pass the Mode.ProjectId into this other controller/view.

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(); } }
