In ASP.Net MVC action methods can return json objects simply by returning something like so:
JSon([whatever])
How do I return a JSon representation of say List<String> with webforms either through a service or through a method in the code behind of an aspx page? This seems incredibly confusing compared to ASP.Net MVC.
I just hit the following issue: I am calling a web service that returns a serialized JSON object let's say: __type, FirstName, LastName (.net object Person with properties FirstName and LastName). __type's value is Test.Person
I have created a JS object using Type.registerNameSpace/registerClass called Demo.Person and it is registered on the page using the ScriptManager. Everything is working fine; I am able to get data from the server on the call back.
Is it possible to make the returned object from the web service be an instance of the declared JavaScript Demo.Person class? The idea would be to call a method like result.getFullName() on the client side without having to copy all the properties. This is just a simple scenario for more complex objects.
I use the JavaScriptSerializer class of ASP.net to serialize my object and return it to the client side. How can I deserialize the string using JavaScript?

Book must contains most of object oriented concepts in depth.
I've scenario where I want to insert data into database without post back. there are around 12 to 13 fields which i need to insert. I'm passing DTO from the client side which is actually Json object. Now the problem which i'm facing is how to convert that Json object which i got in webservice to the "class" (in my case class name is User) object.
[Code]....
In the above case AddNewUser method takes the object of User class. But i'm getting casting error. So how do I convert Json object to the "User" class object?
Is there an easy way to populate my C# Object with the JSON object passed via AJAX?
//This is the JSON Object passed to C# WEBMETHOD from the page using JSON.stringify
{"user":{"name":"asdf","teamname":"b","email":"c","players":["1","2"]}}
//C# WebMetod That receives the JSON Object
[WebMethod]
public static void SaveTeam(Object user)
{
}
//C# Class that represents the object structure of JSON Object passed in to the WebMethod
public class User
{
public string name { get; set; }
public string teamname { get; set; }
public string email { get; set; }
public Array players { get; set; }
}
In MVC3 Beta version i have action result same like
public ActionResult Save(Dictionary<string, string> dicObject)
I want to pass JSON Object in POST Method from javascript and need to get as dictionary object
How can i do this? can you write example if possible?
I have a controller that uploads a file. I would like to return a json result with bool success (if successfully uploaded otherwise false) and message (this could be error message that occured OR link to a file OR link to an image, depending on what was uploaded).What's the best way to approach thisI have this
public class UploadedFile
{
public bool Success { get; set; }
public string Message { get; set; }
}
then In my controller I would set Success to true/or/false and Message to <a href OR <img am i on the right track?How would i then parse this in the view so that when image it will show an image, if link show a link, if error simply alert error.
i use JSon to return allot of results when building a website, but find myself writing a a lot of code like this:
[Code]....
and then simply call this function with whatever IEnumerable results i have my question is would i be on the right lines here, what would be the best possible way to do this as it makes no sense to be writing in MVC and OOP but to keep rewriting code to just FROM ?
[code]....
What's wrong?
Edit: And what if I need to return {Message:'',Type:1} ?
Edit2: The answer for the last one is: I can return a Dictionary<string, string>
I have Categoreis and Locations I would like return both in one method. How can make a use of both Categories.ToList() and Locations.ToList()? What type of object should I return?

My only problem is that it take too long to populate the dropdown. How to convert it into a JSON format so it will more faster populating the data.
I am working on a page that has multiple sections and each section looks 'almost the same'. Having said that, I want to build the HTML on the server and render it for each section on the initial page load. On subsequent actions, I would do a ajax call and have the server return json data.
The other option is to 'hardcode' the HTML on the aspx page and have the JS do the necessary customizations for each section. The third option is to use an UpdatePanel and do everything server side.
Based on what should I be choosing what approach to use? What approach would you use for a page like this (think of it as a large page having sub sections on it)
Edit: One section has HTML such as user's name, and a table where users can add dependents. Another section is almost the same except its for a 'contractor' so there's additional HTML such as previous work history, but this one has name (readonly) and a table to add dependents just like the first one. Other sections have more or less the same HTML. A user can delete dependents as well, when that happens, I need to update the database and update the section to reflect one less dependent. I was hoping to make any subsequent actions as ajax calls that interact with the server and the database
how to query return all data in Array Object ,Hash Table ,And DataTable dataRow
View 4 RepliesI am using an AJAX.Net to call an ASP.Net PageMethod, which returns JSON serialized JSON data
{"d":"[{"Fromaddress":"testfrom1@test.com","Toaddress":"testto1@test.com"},{"Fromaddress":"testfrom2@test.com","Toaddress":"testto2@test.com"}]"}
The Response Header states the content type as

I am new to MVC and am trying to join 2 SQL tables together and return them in a Json. One table is OutreachProgram. The other table is UserInfo. I want to return the rows from the OutreachProgram table that match on CenterID with the UserInfo table.
The code that exists now will pull all rows from the OutreachProgram table. I can't figure out how to add the UserInfo table to the query to make it work.

I seem have been having trouble reaching this. I'd put this into code but I've been hacking away at it so much it'd probably do more harm than good in having this answered. Basically I am using a web service to find names as people type the name. I'd use a regular text file or something but its a huge database that's always changing - and don't worry I've indexed the names so searching can be a little snappier - but I would really prefer to stick with this method and just figure out how to get usable JSON back to javascript. I've seen a few that sort of attempt to describe how one would approach this but I honestly think microsofts articles are damn near unreadable.
EDIT: I'm using the $.ajax() function from jQuery - I've had it working but it seems like I was doing it in bad practice not returning and using actual JSON. Previously I'd take a string back and insert it into html to use the variable it set - very roundabout.
Microsoft Ajax can expose webservices which respond with json or xml depending on configuration. I would like to mock these services using soap ui. Using the wsdl I can do this to mock the services in the case where xml is returned, however how can I mock the response when JSON is returned?
View 1 RepliesI have a list of items(surveys) displayed on my home page. When I click the edit button for a particular item I have a modal pop up with the items details to edit. When the user clicks Save I submit the form via ajax. Depending on whether ModelState.IsValid == true I want to update the modal with validation information or close the modal and update the list of items with the new information.
This is how I am submitting the form:
[Code]...
My Questions
The only thing I can think to do is return JSON from my controller with a flag indicating the state of the ModelState.IsValid and the corresponding partial that I should show.
1) How would I do this?
2) Is there a better way?

I found this: [URL]
but it seems more likely that I am going about the whole thing incorrectly.
How to return values from Webmethod to the client in JSON format? There are two static int values that i want to return.Do I need to create new object with those 2 properties and return it?The GetStatus() method is called frequently and i don't like the idea of creating a special object each time just for json formatting...
[WebMethod]
public static int GetStatus()
{
int statusProcess,statusProcessTotal;
Status.Lock.EnterReadLock();
statusProcess=Status.Process; //Static field
statusProcessTotal=Status.ProcessTotal; //Static field
Status.Lock.ExitReadLock();
return ...
}
On client side I catch the return value in :
function OnSucceeded(result, userContext, methodName)
(PageMethods.GetStatus(OnSucceeded, OnFailed);)
I'm trying to return an error page indicating that the user couldnt be found and therefore I throw a HttpException with status code 404, however for some reason it wont redirect to the error page? - Is there some sort of trick to handle error pages with JSON that I should be aware of? My current code:
public ActionResult Details(int id)
{
User userToGet = _session.Query(new GetUserById(id));
if(userToGet == null)
{
throw new HttpException(404, "User not found");
}
DetailsUserViewModel userToViewModel = AutoMapper.Mapper.Map<User, DetailsUserViewModel>(userToGet);
return Json(new
{
HTML = RenderPartialViewToString("Partials/Details", userToViewModel)
}, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
Update - Some more code:
// MyJs.js
function openBox(object) {
$("body").append("<div id='fadeBox'></div><div id='overlay' style='display:none;'></div>");
$("#fadeBox").html("<div style='position:absolute;top:0;right:0;margin-right:2px;margin-top:2px;'><a id='closeBox' href='#'>x</a></div>" + object["HTML"])
$("#fadeBox").fadeIn("slow");
$('#wrapper').attr('disabled', 'disabled');
$("#overlay").show();
jQuery.validator.unobtrusive.parse('#mybox') /* Enable client-side validation for partial view */
}
// List.cshtml
@model IEnumerable<MyDemon.ViewModels.ListUsersViewModel>
<table style="width:100%;">
<tr style="font-weight:bold;">
<td>UserId</td>
<td>UserName</td>
</tr>
@foreach (var user in Model)
{
<tr>
<td>@user.UserId</td>
<td>@user.UserName</td>
<td>@Ajax.ActionLink("Details", "details", "account", new { id = @user.UserId }, new AjaxOptions() { HttpMethod = "GET", OnSuccess = "openBox" })</td>
</tr>
}

Just ramping up on JSON and JQuery and returning data to a ASP.NET web page from a web service using Ajax. The JQuery part is pretty straight-forward. However, when trying to return JSON formatted data instead of XML from a 2.0 web service, I'm stuck. The web service does have the System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptService attribute, so I can hit it via JavaScript; however, the web service always...always...returns data in XML format, no matter if I explicitly say I want JSON as the datatype in my JQuery code. So I don't know if this is an issue with the web service or the JQuery code. I posted this here, but realize that the category could be incorrect depending on where the issue is. Is there no way to return JSON data from a 2.0 web service? It's a production web service, so I can't change the code unfortunately.
