I 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 6 RepliesI 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.

I have an ASP.NET page that contains two div's. Both have search fields and a search button contained within each of them. When I first come to this page, Div A has the class 'SearchDiv' while Div B has 'SearchDivDisabled'. These classes change the appearance so the user knows which search type they currently have enabled.
When Div B is clicked, JavaScript changes it's class to 'SearchDiv', and changes Div A to 'SearchDivDisabled'. This all works like a charm. The problem I have is when a user changes to Div B, clicks Div B's search button (which obviously redirects to a results page), and then uses the browser's back button. When they return to the search page, Div A is enabled again, and Div B is Disabled, even though they last used Div B. In the search button event handler I set the class attribute of the Divs before I redirect, hoping this will update the page on the server so when the user returns, their last-enabled Div will still be enabled (regardless of which one was enabled when the page was first visited).I believe this involves the ViewState, but I'm unsure why the class attribute is not saved so when the user returns to the page it is restored.
Edit: Here is the button event handler code:
protected void RedirectToResults(int searchEnum, string resultPage)
{
ShowContainer(searchEnum);[code]....
RedirectToResults() is called from the actual button event handler with the enum representing the selected search panel and the results page url. SearchContainers is a dictionary mapping an integer to the search Div. The important code is the last line, where I'm updating the selected search container with the 'active' search class, rather than the disabled one (which I assign to the other div(s) )
Additional Update: I have been battling with this issue for the last couple days. I was sort of able to get the following code to work (in page_load):
Response.AppendHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate"); // HTTP 1.1.
Response.AppendHeader("Pragma", "no-cache"); // HTTP 1.0.
Response.AppendHeader("Expires", "0"); // Proxies.
But this really isn't a solution, as everything else that gets cached correctly is lost, which leaves me worse off than when I started. Everything else seems to persist fine, it is just the class of the div that is causing me struggles.
Edit: Just wanted to update this for anyone else that comes across this. While I believe there is a solution here with setting the cacheability of the page to force the browser to postback, I could not get it working 100% with all browsers (primarily Firefox was giving me fits, which is a documented bug). I do believe the cookie solution would work, but I felt that may be a bit more complex than necessary for just trying to store the state of a couple div's.
What I ended up doing was tying the div's class to the state of it's correlating radio button (there are radio buttons next to the div which allow the users a more visual way of enabling search panels). I noticed these radio buttons retained the correct checked value when the back button was used, so I could guarantee they would indicate the correct div to be enabled. So in JavaScript's onload I check which radio button is enabled, and then adjust the classes of the search div's accordingly. This is a pretty big hack, but has worked 100% across all browsers, and only took about 10 lines of JavaScript.
I 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've a checkbox with autopostback=true. If i check the checkbox the postback occurs and changes a label text. But if i click back in the browser the checkbox is not returning to its previous unchecked state. How can i bring back its state?
Can i write some JavaScript to persist the state of a control?

I'm writing an ASP.Net application (no AJAX, but maybe) and there's a requirement to have a list of companies graded under a traffic light system. I intend to have these in a collapsible hierarchical list on the Master page, e.g. Red expands to show companies, and then companies can be further expanded.
how can I keep the expanded list in the same place, with the same content visible, between page loads?
how can DropDownList attributes be persisted accross page Postbacks?
Example:
DropdownList1.AutoPostBack = True
DropdownList1.items(0).Attributes.Add("Attribute1","somevalue")
On Postback the attribute is no longer available (ie. attributes.count=0).
I tried persisting using the code below, but was unsuccessful:
Before PostBack: ViewState.Add("DDL","DropdownList1")
On PostBack: DropdownList1 = ViewState("DDL")
This generated the error: DropDownlist is not marked as serializable.
I than tried:
Before PostBack: Session.Add("DDL","DropdownList1")
On PostBack: DropdownList1 = Session("DDL")
This did not err but attributes were still not available.
Using Vb.Net 2003 Asp.Net 1.1
I have a dynamic data bound drop down list, when the user selects thier selected item I have to use the autopostback feature.
Problem is: when the page comes back it is at the top of the page not where i have the control.
I don't really need it to focus back on the dropdownlist but to scroll to it, I want to do it in the code behind.
Any "New" ways to do it, I mean new as in code from like 2010 instead of old code from the early days.
I really don't want to use Page.Register new Script...... code if I can avoid it.
What would be cool is a ScrollToControl() Function for my code behind that worked but didn't register script.

The sequence of actions that I am trying to accomplish is below.
Context: user can add products to its own account.
User tries to add a specific product. (He/she is not login at this point.
In the code behind, I need to redirect the user to login page before I can add the product to user's account.
After login, how do I take the system back to the logic to finish up the action in step 1.

In Short: Does any know a way from the base controller to get a list of actionFilters being applied to the current executing action?
The Long:I am using ASP.NET MVC 1.0 framework. I have a "RequireSSL" actionFilter that I've recreated for checking out, however, if someone leaves the checkout and goes back to the store I would like to forward them back to non-secure version of the site.It would be helpful in the base controller (I am using a custom base controller that inherits from the default Controller) to find out what actionFilters are being applied to the current action.I could include this into the global.asax.cs
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 have an aspx page for Search Options. There are three aspx Dropdown List Controls that are each bound to seperate data sources. The selection made in the Dropdown control is used in a SQL Query within a GridView data source to display the results list.
When I select an item from the drop down list I get the search result, but I want the drop down list to return to it's initial state after it displays the result, so the next selection made will clear the results list from the first selection. I have tried a number of different approaches, but no success. Seems like this should be easy, but I'm new to coding.
I have found a couple of possibles on the forum, but they didn't work. Not sure if you can make any sense of this, but I'll try to give you something more to go on. All I really want to do is reset the dropdown after it displays the results of the search, which I assume is after a PostBack. Here is what I have tried in the Code Behind or Script.
This for just one of the Dropdown Lists, ID=Practices. I have been trying to make this work for way too long. Also, I have tried it with AutoPostBack set to true but same problem. Currently have a 'Submit" button on the page to initiate the search.

I have an asp:ListBox which contains a list of countries. Users select one or more countries and then assign them to another list box on the page.
<asp:ListBox id="countrylist" runat="server" SelectionMode="Multiple" AutoPostBack="True" CssClass="inputC" OnSelectedIndexChanged="countrylist_SelectedIndexChanged"></asp:ListBox>
In Internet Explorer, if I scroll down (say to United States) and then click it, the list scrolls back to the top. United States is still selected, if I press the "Assign" button it will appear within the second list box, and if I scroll down I can see that United States is still selected.
However, users are complaining about this, especially since it happens so quickly that they can't select multiple countries.
I tried using smartnavigation and MaintainScrollPosition, but this has had no effect.

This behaviour is not exhibited in Firefox.
