I have a controller called Person and it has a post method called NameSearch.
This method returns RedirectToAction("Index"), or View("SearchResults"), or View("Details"). The url i get for all 3 possibilities are [URL] How would i change this to rewrite the urls to [URL], [URL] for View("SearchResults"), and [URL].
When i try to insert values from textbox to db the values are not getting inside controllers action method.
My View Page codings
<%@ Page Language="C#" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewPage<MvcEntity.Models.Movie>" %>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
[Code].....
System.ArgumentException: Value cannot be null or empty.
From within my controllers action, do I have access to httpcontextbase?I have a method that takes httpcontextbase as a parameter.
View 1 RepliesI'm currently using asp.net mvc 3 on vs 2010, i can't debug the action methods of the controllers (if its a ajax call/request).
View 6 RepliesI have an action where I get the list from the database and pass it to the view. Now, I want that when I fire another action I can somehow get hold of that list (List). How can I do that since ViewData and the TempData is erased on each request.
View 1 RepliesI am using asp.net mvc 3 and I want to trigger the GridView action and pass the dropdownlist selected value in the action parameter.
@Html.ActionLink("View", "GridAction", new { action = $("#DropDownList1").val() });
I have the Index action method calling a method that itself is an action method.
Example :

What to do in this case ?
I am desiging a master and details page from a search page..user can search for something and I need to display the result in jqgrid if the result has more than 1 row or record.. if the result is just one record then i have to directly send then to details page by skiping grid page... I do have an action method for results page and one more action method for Jqgrid data..i am trying to check the row count for the database result and trying to redirect to details action results..but its not working at all..and showing an empty jqgrid..

How can I make an AJAX call to retrieve the URL of controller's action method?
View 2 RepliesI've been using the new ASP.Net MVC 3 RemoteAttribute to send a remote call to an action method that had a single parameter. Now I want to pass in a second parameter using the AdditionalFields property:
[Remote("IsEmailAvailable", "Users", AdditionalFields = "InitialEmail")]
Where IntialEmail is a hidden field in the view. The action looks like so:
public JsonResult IsEmailAvailable(string email,string InitialEmail){//etc.}
When the view is rendered, the hidden field is populated, but when the Action method is triggered remotely, the value is an empty string.
I've seen elsewhere case sensitivity may be an issue, so I've ensured the Action method has the same case for both parameters.
I have 2 views for a input operation in my application.
The first view (lets call it view1) submits a form. Based on the form some operations on database is done and second view(View2) is returned with some other data from the database as a model.
[Code]....
Now, since I return a new view and not a action redirect the url is still http://url/View1 but everything works as it is supposed to.
When I submit the form in View2 it calls the View1 action method, not the View2 action method. Probably because the url is still View1.
public ActionResult RenderMyThing(IList<String> strings)
{
return View("RenderMyView");
}
How do I pass in strings?
routes.MapRoute("MyRoute", "RenderMyThing.aspx", new { controller = "My", action = "RenderMyThing" });
Is there a way I could pass in strings here?
Secondly, how does ASP.NET MVC know that action is my action, and controller is my controller. Like I saw this in samples, and it does work, but isn't it just an anonymous object with no type?
I'm trying to use the jQuery.post() function to post an object to an action method, but for some reason the nested objects aren't initialised properly when they're received by the action method.
Here's my javascript code:

And my action method:

company.Id has a value of 10, but company.User.Id is 0. what I'm doing wrong? I've not named any properties incorrectly, by the way.
I have an ActionResult that accepts POST, however is there a work around for me to redirect from a controller to another controller containing this POST method/action?
View 3 RepliesI'm sure something like this worked before for taking a type and pass it to another action method (I cannot / never use TempData)

how to call a ASP.NET MVC controller action from a javascript function in related view.
Particularly I am trying do do this from a recursive timer function like this:
script type="text/javascript">
function ShowTime() {
var dt = new Date();
document.getElementById("<%= TextBox1.ClientID %>").value = dt.toLocaleTimeString();
---> // the controller action call: "/Controller/ShowImage"
window.setTimeout("ShowTime()", 1000);
}
</script>
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<script type="text/javascript">
// a startup script to put everything in motion
window.setTimeout("ShowTime()", 1000);
</script>
The action result is an image (JPEG serialized array) for display.
i just want to be able to call a javascritp subroutine on the client, after the server has done its thing (when an action completes or control goes to the view, i'd dont mind calling the js from the view either).
for some reason, even vs2010 doesn't let me put breakpoints in <% ... %> tagged areas between <script...> and </script> tagged areas. i for this reason can't figure out whats going on and how it's running things. here is what i've put in my view, and the javascritp should run, but it doesn't....
im just trying to call "RunOnceRoutines;" but it's not getting called!
the 2 questions: how on earth do we call javascript methods from server, and where is all this lovely javascript debugging i've heard about since vs2008? no where to be found!

In one view (view1) there is a text box and a button beside it. i click on that button, i am popping another view (Create view) as a seperate window. in create view i am entering some values and creating a record in db. out of these values one value i have to send back to "View1". how can i send this value? i am opening view2 from view1 like
<input type="button" value="Get ID"
onclick="window.open('<%=Url.Action("Create","Controller1") %>',
'','scrollbars=yes,width=800,height=800,resizable=yes');"
/>
View2 contains some fields like Name,Email etc... and I click "Create" to call HTTPPOST. there i add the values to db including a generated guid. i want to send this ID to view1.
I've an action method like the below:
[HTTPPost]
public void Edit(Movie movie)
{
}
Movie has fields Id, Name. View is displaying name only in textbox. When button is clicked, the above action method's movie is populates with the updated name value but Id is 0, actually that record's id is 4. Thatswhy my updating of record is not working. Why MVC is putting 0 into id?
I am new to this MVC and have a basic question related to validation. I have a create view for customer and based on the customer entity partial class metadata, I am validating the user input and its working fine as expected when the user clicks the create button.I also have a search button in the same create view, which is used for auto generation of some of the field values. When the user clicks the search button the action method create (post) is called with the corresponding button value as argument.the issue here is when the user clicks the search button most of the user input fields will be blank and the validation fails because of that.
View 4 RepliesI'm struggling with renderaction, the problem is that it calls the wrong action method on my controller.On my "Users" controller there are two action methods called edit, one for get and one for post requests:
public virtual ActionResult Edit(int id)
{
//return a view for editing the user

for debugging purposes, how do I see the ModelState errors from code in the action method? ModelState.IsValid returns false. I want to copy the error messages to a variable so I can display them in the debugger.
View 2 RepliesI am using ASP.NET MVC 1. I want to pass an int value to from an action to view. I can use 2 ways.
Use ViewData dictionary.
Define a class to contain the int value.
Other these two, Is there a way to pass the int value to view so that I can get the int value using just Model like
<label><%= Model %></label>
I'm using MVC2.
I added routher for url: "autors/year-range/1928/page2"
routes.MapRoute("AuthorsPopular",
"authors/{action}/{param}/{page}",
[code]...
Since Year-Range is invalid method name.
