C# - Add The View Into The Views Folder In Main App Project?
Jan 29, 2011
I've got my Controllers in its own project, my Models in their own projects, and the Main App in ITS own project, which contains the Views folder.
So when I open up my controller cs file and right click on, say for example, the Details action and choose "Add View", it creates a Views folder within my Controllers project, and adds the view there. I want it to add the view into the Views folder in my Main App project. How in the world do I do this?
Let's say there is a textbox and a dropdownlist in mainview page, these two values are used by three partial views as well. when I use Html.RenderAction to post action to those three partial views, how to pass these two values to those partial views and in those views how to get these two values as a part of a object to send to database.
I currently have a dedicated server running a number of sites, one of these sites I would like to add a subfolder to which runs a seperate index.html file, so effectively it looks like a different site.
I am struggling to acheive this, can anybody give me the steps involved to make this happen?
To clarify, i have a web address for example www.mydomain.com and would like users to browse to www.mydomain.com/subfolder and open up a sub folder.
I have a .net website that I've built but here's the catch - when it's deployed I don't know whether it will be deployed to the root of the site or to a sub folder of a larger site (and it needs to be able to move around between places)
And - here's the important bit - we will have zero access to IIS on the live server so this just has to run straight away.
So far I've managed to find work arounds for things like paths to resources but I now need to use a 3rd party component (.dll).
Normally this would go in the bin folder and, if I run my site in the root of the website it works fine but, as soon as we move the site to a sub folder, the reference to the 3rd party component wont work.
Now - I know normally you'd suggest creating a virtual directory under IIS but remember - I HAVE NO ACCESS TO IIS.
So - is there a way to still use 3rd party components in my project and have my project all run in a sub folder of a website?
And no - I can't move just the bin folder to the root of the site - it all has to sit within its own folder.
How can I add a sub folder within the Views folder for a controller?
I have a controller named "admin". In the Views folder, there is an "admin" folder.
The admin controller has a number of actions. For each group of actions, there is a partial class that contains the actions of the group. admin/reports, admin/inventory, admin/orders, ... Problem is, when I move the "ReportsIndex.aspx" view into folder Views/Admin/Reports, MVC says it cant find the view when the ReportsIndex action method does a "return View("ReportsIndex", model) ;".
I defined a few display templates for classes and they work well when I put them in views/shared/DisplayTemplates. However after I move them into an area, looks like ASP.NET MVC won't look inside Area to find the templates. How to reference the DisplayTemplates defined in an Area from main project? Is that a good practise?
In above link you clearly describe (How to display directory folder structure).
The path only works when the folder insight the project.
When I put folder outside the project it didn't work. What type of changes I need to made to acces the folder outside the poject. & How can I show other details of files which are including in folders Like. Last Modified Created Date, Modified Date etc..
We store backup archives in subfolders of a folder on one of the server's external USB drive. I would like to have an ASP.NET app read the contents of this folder so the manager can view the backup files to confirm backups are working and optionally delete these backup files when an old drive is reconnected so it can be used for the next weeks backups.
This backup folder is oubviously outside the server's webroot. Is there some way I can grant authority so the ASP.Net app can access this folder for this purpose? I would be using VS Web Express, so can't create any signed packages and such.
I had just a little question. I create an empty MVC 2 web site and in the Views folder there is a "web.config" file why? why in "Views" folder and not in the "Controllers" folder?It's not a big problem for me, but i just want to understand
I am working with Asp.net MVC 2 Framework.My project have 20 modules. In each module wise i want to group the controllers and views. Controller are grouped in folder for each module. but the views are not grouped for each module.Instead of it creating each folder for each controller.x: Countrycontroller ,StateController,CityController these controller under Admin Module.Views are created in Country Countryindex.aspx State Stateindex.aspx City Cityindex.aspx of that i need in the following structure . Admin Countryindex.aspx Stateindex.aspx Cityindex.aspx
We have a legacy ASP.NET webforms application that we're engaged in stabilising and removing technical debt from. Is it possible to take a hybrid approach - ie, can ASP.NET MVC coexist with webforms within the same web-project? Are there any gotchas for that? If it is possible, I assume one just has to initialise the routes table, register the ASP.NET MVC handlers,
I want a view that contains 2 partialviews. 1 partial view should be a create or edit view (of items) and in the second partial view there should be a list with the items that are created (and which can be edited). When an item in the list is selected for editing the 1st partial view should show the edit view with the item to be edited.
After saving the data, the create view should be shown in the 1st partial view again. When the view comes up for the first time the 1st partialview should contain the create view. In normal ASP.net I would do this with a formview (with insert and edit mode based on the itemselected in the gridview) and a gridview (and of course everything in an AJAX update panel).
I have an application I'm currently working on that requires Administrators to be able to track the views of a ticket and it's duration.
I've got the tracking of the number of views by users sorted out, I have a table that contains a TicketID, UserID and a DateOpened. Each time a user visits the page, a new row will be inserted.
However, the way I would like to track the duration of views is by having a DateClosed field in the table which will allow me to work out view duration in the code as opposed to storing the time directly.
I can't use Google Analytics or anything Third Party for the task either due to internal policy as it's an intranet application.
I have a Controller set up for a certain View. This View contains 2 partial Views (ascx files). Each partial View has a Controller method that yields its DataModel. The containing View doesn't currently display any data, but just serves as a container for the 2 partial Views.
Here's the problem: The Index action of the containing View runs, but the Controller methods for the partial Views don't, so I get a null exception when the Model tries to render out the data that should be available. I'm using MVC 1.0, which is something of a bummer, since it seems that the next version is supposed to have something other than "RenderPartial" that will assist with this very issue. However, since I'm stuck for the moment with 1.0, can anyone give some advice on getting the Controller methods to run for the partial Views?
I've recently began learning ASP.NET MVC.I created my first project, and added a model via Linq TO SQL. The first model handled a database table that held a list of menu items.I then created a view and the view would loop through all of the menu items returned by the controller and build a custom menu for me.
I then created a Model via Linq TO SQL to point to a table that hold's my site articles.I created a view that would itereate through all of the site articles returned by the controller and list them in the view.
Now I've taken the logic from the menu view and created a partial usercontrol view to build my menu. I've done the same thing with the SiteArticles.
How do I make the data from both of these modles availble in one view?I basically want to HTML.RenderPartial("MenuControl") in my master page and RenderPartial("ArticleControl") in the conent of the view.
I'm using the original view that i created to show articles..
So If i remove the rendering of the menucontrol user control from the master page and i call the view to show the articles, the articles will render because the controller knows to load the articles and return them to the view..
If i add the menu user control to the masterpage, I get an error because the view recieves data from the site article model/controller but not from the menu model/controller.
I have a partial view (user control) that is shared by my Create and Edit views. When I use it in the Edit view, I have to to include an hidden field (Html.HiddenFor) to prevent a 'Row changed or not found' error in my data service, but when I use it in the Create view, I have to remove the PK hidden field, to prevent an error over trying to insert into an identity column. It is not feasible to not use identity columns in this application, so how can I 'switch' that PK hidden field on or off depending on which action has been invoked?
Post Action Code:
[HttpPost] public ActionResult Edit(JobCardViewData viewData) { try { jobCardService.Update(viewData.JobCard); Edit View Excerpt: <% Html.RenderPartial("JobCardInput", Model); %> Partial Excerpt: <%@ Control Language="C#" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewUserControl<Poynting.Installation.Web.ViewData.JobCardViewData>" %> <% using (Html.BeginForm())
i created a "create" view for creating a new record of my used model. The View includes partial views with the editor-fields. But the "Create" submit button doesn't work. When i copy the editor-fields to the create view without using partial views the submit button works. Here is my code: Create.cshtml
