So I have a form with a text area on it, and I need to post it. I can't encode it (as far as I know) client side, prior to submit, and it causes the yellow screen of death before reaching the HttpPost action handler.

I originally have the question posted here, but I need as many eyes as possible on it.Essentially, I'm having issues redirecting to an action in mvc2 when working with JSON data. I post a stringified JSON object to an action and the action in turn redirects as needed. It worked previously when using form fields, but not when I'm posting JSON. To get posted JSON objects to properly bind to parameters objects in MVC, I'm taking advantage of the JsonValueProviderFactory class from MVC2Futures/MVC3Beta.Why is this occuring? The jQuery ajax call is telling the server "I'm giving you json, I expect html in return" and all actions pointed to via RedirectToAction calls are structured in a similar manner. I instead get stuck in a loop, continually hitting the originally requested action, with a prompt to reenter authorization information to boot! It seems lose authentication/authorization information in the process.The linked question on
View 4 RepliesI have a Person class with an Address property. The Address contains a Country property of type Country which in turn has a CountryCode property of type string, as follows:
Person.Address.Country.CountryCode
I have a select element on the page with a name of "Country.CountryCode". With MVC 1 this was bound perfectly to the CountryCode property of Country. In MVC 2 however, I get the following error when the page is posted back:
[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've been using Html.Action("ActionName", "ControllerName") to invoke child actions across controllers without needing to have the view in ViewsShared. This has been working great for displaying things like session or cookie information.
Instead of just accessing cookies, I would like to pass additional parameters to Html.Action("ActionName", "ControllerName") so the action can execute different code based on the the data passed to the original view.
Should I be using a different method to pass parameters to a child action in a different controller?

View 1 RepliesI'm developing a new MVC web site and one requirement is to display some html controls as disabled depending of user role, so the user can change the data in the form for the enabled html controls. The action method sends a model the view. Then the view renders and fill the html controls binding the model, then with jquery I applied the $(#control).attr("disabled","disabled") to all the controls that must be set to disabled based on user roles. Then the user can modify the enabled hmtl controls and post the form.
When the POST Action method recieves the model as parameter I can notice that all the disabled html controls are not sending their values. How can I set HTML controls: TextBox, DropDownList, Checkbox and Radiobuttons to disabled and still getting their values in the form post?
Does anybody know what's the difference between Html.RenderAction and Html.Action?
View 2 RepliesI'm building a menu controller class and I have a database with the Controller/Action strings in it. I want to dynamically build a menu reading from the database and generating the URLs to use in the menu's <a href=''> HTML that the class renders. I can't use Html.Action() in my class. I've tried adding System. Web.Mvc, but this doesn't help. Is there a way to generate a page's URL when given the Controller and Action? Maybe referencing the MVC equivalant of HttpContext.Current like I used to do in WebForms?

In the view I have a HTML button:
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
Also I have a dropdownlist, how do I call the controller's action after I click the "Submit" button?
And how do I pass the Model back to the controller action as well?
The reason I want to pass back the model (or other object/class) to controller's action is I might have 5 dropdown lists and 3 edit boxes values to be sent as parameters. So I would like to assign these parameters into a object and send it back to controller's action.

How does a controller action return an HTML stream as the View? ( in place of the name of the View file )
I want to return a simple "error detected" or "action completed" page to the browser. And I dont want to clutter up my project with yet another view. The return string being "<html><body><h1>Error. Customer xxxx is not found</h1></body></html>"
( thinking about it, better to have a general purpose view in a folder named "Common". Then pass the message text in ViewData. Still curious to know how to return an html stream. )

I am quite new to MVC development and facing some basic issues.
I am having a form on which I am taking input form user. It is bould to one of the properties on Model class.
I am having a submit button
<input type="submit" value="Save"/>
Now I want to call Save Action in my controller on click on this Save button.
But it is not working. I have checked on following things:
1. My HTML page is correctly point to the controller
2. I have written HTML code as
<%= HTML.BeginForm("Save","ControllerName", FormMethod.Post); %>
<input type="submit" value="Save"/>
<%= HTML.EndForm();%>
I have a controller's action and view page that uses a master page.
The master page has the html title section like:
<title>this is the page's title</html>
How can I access this section from within my controller's action (preferably) or my action's view page?
I'm implement Comet in Asp.net MVC, I used timer to keep Async request in server, Async request will complete when timer elapsed 1 minute and response to client (to avoid 404 error) and then reconnect to Async Controller. I also wanna execute some Synchronous action during Async request was holding, but the problem is: When an Async action was executed and hold by using timer, the Sync Action wasn't called until Async action (comet long-live request) completed. I did test with firefox 3.6 many times, but the result is the same, so strange, Do you know why ? I have a sub some questions : To implement comet, using timer (response after some minutes elapsed) or thread (response after several time sleeping thread) to hold async request, which is better?
