display a simple modal message stating that an action as taken place?For instance, I have a button on my screen that sends an email. After completing the task I enable a label (visible=true) that states 'Email Sent'.I would rather have something pop up after clicking send mail, stating the email was sent.Do I need to use an AJAX control (popup extender), or is there a simple method of doing this?

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to add file upload functionality to a page. I've got a form that posts the selected file to a controller with a 'savefile' method. But if I don't add a get version of 'savefile' I'll get a 404 error. Here is the form code which is presented on the Index page:
[Code]....
And here is the controller code:
[Code]....
Intuitively I don't think I should need a GET version of SaveFile but if omit it I get a 404 error when the form posts. Why should I need a GET version of SaveFile when all I want is to post a form and save the file?
i am thinking to capture which button has caused a postback in the web pages.
Is it possible to do so?

View 1 Repliesi wonder something about mvc post method. for example I created a view "strongly typed" from a model (MyModel).
<%@ Page Title="" Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Views/Shared/Site.Master" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewPage<Demo1.Models.MyModel>" %>
for Create actionsthere is two way.
first one takes MyModel as parameter
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult cart(MyModel md, int someID)
{
//some code
//.....
return View(MyModel);
}
second one does not take parameter as model.
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult cart(int someID)
{
//some code
//.....
return View(Mymodel);
}
for first one way, after form post the form values does not delete, I mean form does not cleared,after second one form is be cleared. why this diffirence?

I must miss something obvious here when using htmlbegin form. I noticed that it takes (or tries to take me) right to the view rather than the an action. If I replace SearchAction with SearchResult is goes nicely to the view, not considering the action.
Using SeachAction leads to the error that it cant find the view.
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 RepliesWe have an ASP.Net page that uses a checkbox to toggle between a list view and a tree view. The problem is that this triggers a post.

View 1 Repliespublic class BandProfileModel
{
public BandModel Band { get; set; }
public IEnumerable<Relationship> Requests { get; set; }
}
and the following form:
<% using (Html.BeginForm()) { %>
<%: Html.EditorFor(m => m.Band) %>
<input type="submit" value="Save Band" />
<% } %>
which posts to the following action:
public ActionResult EditPost(BandProfileModel m, string band)
{
// stuff is done here, but m is null?
return View(m);
}
Basically, I only have one property on my model that is used in the form. The other property in BandProfleModel is just used in the UI for other data. I'm trying to update just the Band property, but for each post, the argument "m" is always null (specifically, the .Band property is null). It's posting just fine to the action, so it isn't a problem with my route. Just the data is null.
The ID and name attributes of the fields are BAND_whatever and Band.whatever (whatever being a property of Band), so it seems like it would work. What am I doing wrong? How can I use just one property as part of a form, post back, and have values populated via the model binder for my BandProfileModel property in the action?
i have an app to post on friends wall but i want it to prompt to choose from friends like adding friends by checkbox so that the messsage can be sent to all i selected simultaneously.
View 1 Repliesi am making a forum application using MVC 2. I have a ForumController which has Index and Create Actions. The Get Create Action returns View and the Post Create Action takes an argument of type "ForumEntry". When i generate create view i make sure that i check "create strongly typed view" and i select models.ForumEntry Model and NOT the models.Forum Model. The Forum model is ADO.NET enitity model that maps to Forum Table. I want to catch ForumEntry type into my Create Post action but mysteriously i get a Forum Object. I have verified this by returning Content When :
[HttpPost]
Public ActionResult Create(ForumEntry entryToCreate)
{
return Content (entryToCreate.Title); // No Output
}
When
[HttpPost]
Public ActionResult Create(Forum entryToCreate)
{
return Content (entryToCreate.Title); // output == new entry that i typed in the create form
}
I am baffled as the create Form is of type FormEntry. Here is the code for create View
<%@ Page Title="" Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Views/Shared/Site.Master" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewPage<Aspforum.Models.ForumEntry>" %>
I am having a problem where when I form post to an action it gets null values in my hosted enviroment although if I use a model to bind to it works fine. Everything posts and works correctly when I run the project.
So far I have tried to pass the form fields back as parameters on the action and get the value through the context request. Both work fine but as soon as I publish it to the hosted enviroment, it doesn't work. in the view I have:
<%=Html.TextBox("subject") %>
<%=Html.TextBox("comment") %>
for the action Method:
[HttpPost]
[Authorize]
public ActionResult Reply(int? id, string subject, string comment)
{
//Some code...
}
I have verified that it is hitting the action but the subject and comment values are null. I am guessing I am missing something simple, maybe a security setting in the config, that is causing this since I am still fairly new with MVC. I am running VS 2008 with MVC2.
ia ma working on an asp.net mvc 2 app and i have a Users view, displaying all the users of the database. Then, i would like to add the ablility to display "users starting with fisrt name" capabaility on the same view. For this i created a list of all english leters that actually are links (<a href="#">A</a>, etc...)
I managed to handle the click event of each one of the letters and get the corresponding letter via jquery, but i don't know how to call theHttp.Post Users/FindUserByFirstLetterName(string letter) on the click event.
I cannot use the Html.ActionLink<> helper, since it redirects me to the HttpGet controller action.
I also tried using using jqery.Post but i also couldn't manage to call the action.
I am working with MVC2 and one of the view model's properties is IDictionary<Int32, String>.
This is not to be changed on the view. But when the form is posted back I would like to still get those values.
Can Html.Hidden store this property values?
How should I do this so the model still gets the IDictionary<Int32, String> values on the POST action?
randomly get errors when using dropdownlists stating a value is not present. This occurs when there is a value in the table (its a very old table with inconsistencies in data entry) that is not in the current values that are part of the dropdownlist. I'm wondering if there is a way to override this in the code behind. What I would like to be able to do is have the form control bypass the fact that the data is not in the dropdownlist when it opens in edit mode. I'm thinking that there needs to be something in the code behind but I'm not sure if that is the way to go and if so, how to code it.
View 3 RepliesI am using ASP.NET 2.0 with C#(No AJAX) in my project. In a particular web page, when the a button is clicked, some server intensive C# code runs before the same page is displayed again with the results. While code execution happens on the server in response to Button_Click event, a blank white page is shown to user on his browser in between post backs. How do i show a message in this case, that the processing is still going on and ask the user to wait? I have used javascript to show a message on page unload. But this message is also erased when the page is posted back to the server and the user sees a blank white page on his browser. How do i avoid this white page? Is there a way to show a message in the blank white page? How do i show a processing Message while the page is loading upon on Post Backs to the same Page.

I'm attempting to write a unit tests for an ASP.NET MVC 2 post action that takes a view model as its sole parameter. The view model is decorated with validation attributes such as [Required]. I'd like to test two scenarios. The first scenario is when a valid set of data is passed in (ie, all required properties have values) and a redirect to the list page is returned. The second scenario involves passing in invalid data (eg, when one or more of the Required properties are not set). In this case the same view is returned with error messages.The action signature is as follows:
[HttpPost]
public virtual ActionResult Create(NewsViewModel model)
The NewsViewModel class is as follows:
public class NewsViewModel
{
public Guid Id { get; set; }

I read an article that it has something to do with downloading MEX metadata so I disabled the mex and httpGetEnabled to false but no luck.
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)

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)
