Partial view load with layout page - asp.net-mvc

Question

When I tried to load my partial view inside the modal. it loads with layout page also. But I didn't put my layout page to my partial view. Why layout page called automatically to my partial view I cannot find the layout page called in in partial view.
This is my partial view code
#model Mvc.Models.Company
#Scripts.Render("~/bundles/jquery")
#Scripts.Render("~/bundles/jqueryval")
#using (Html.BeginForm())
{
#Html.AntiForgeryToken()
<div class="form-horizontal">
<h4>Company</h4>
<hr />
#Html.ValidationSummary(true, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.Name, htmlAttributes: new { #class = "control-label col-md-2" })
<div class="col-md-10">
#Html.EditorFor(model => model.Name, new { htmlAttributes = new { #class = "form-control" } })
#Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.Name, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.Address, htmlAttributes: new { #class = "control-label col-md-2" })
<div class="col-md-10">
#Html.EditorFor(model => model.Address, new { htmlAttributes = new { #class = "form-control" } })
#Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.Address, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.PhoneNumber, htmlAttributes: new { #class = "control-label col-md-2" })
<div class="col-md-10">
#Html.EditorFor(model => model.PhoneNumber, new { htmlAttributes = new { #class = "form-control" } })
#Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.PhoneNumber, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.URL, htmlAttributes: new { #class = "control-label col-md-2" })
<div class="col-md-10">
#Html.EditorFor(model => model.URL, new { htmlAttributes = new { #class = "form-control" } })
#Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.URL, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.Email, htmlAttributes: new { #class = "control-label col-md-2" })
<div class="col-md-10">

#Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.Email, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.Active, htmlAttributes: new { #class = "control-label col-md-2" })
<div class="col-md-10">
<div class="checkbox">
#Html.EditorFor(model => model.Active)
#Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.Active, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.Tstamp, htmlAttributes: new { #class = "control-label col-md-2" })
<div class="col-md-10">
#Html.EditorFor(model => model.Tstamp, new { htmlAttributes = new { #class = "form-control" } })
#Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.Tstamp, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.IsDeleted, htmlAttributes: new { #class = "control-label col-md-2" })

</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="col-md-offset-2 col-md-10">
<input type="submit" value="Create" class="btn btn-default" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
}
<div>
#Html.ActionLink("Back to List", "Index")
</div>
This is my Controller code
public ActionResult _Create()
{
return View();
}
[HttpPost]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public ActionResult _Create([Bind(Include = "CompanyID,Name,Address,PhoneNumber,URL,Email,Active")] Company company)
{
if (ModelState.IsValid)
{
db.Companies.Add(company);
db.SaveChanges();
return RedirectToAction("Index");
}
return View(company);
}
Calling Create page from the Index page
<button id="createCompanyButton" type="button" class="btn btn-info">Create Company</button>
<div class="modal fade" role="dialog" id="createCompanyFormModal" data-backdrop="static" data-keyboard="false">
<div class="modal-dialog">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close">
<span aria-hidden="true">×</span>
</button>
<h4 class="modal-title">Default Modal</h4>
</div>
<div id="createCompanyFormModalbody" class="modal-body">
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default pull-left" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Save changes</button>
</div>
</div>
<!-- /.modal-content -->
</div>
</div>
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$(document).on('click','#createCompanyButton', function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
event.stopImmediatePropagation();
$.ajax({
url: '/Companies/_Create',
type: 'GET',
success: function(data) {
$('#createCompanyFormModalbody').html(data);
$('#createCompanyFormModal').modal('show');
},
error: function() {
alert("There is some problem in the service!");
}
});
});
});
</script>

Answer 1

Try returning PartialView() instead of View()

Answer 2

I think your problem lies in your action, you are returning partial view result.
try this, I hope this will work for you!
public ActionResult _Create()
{
return PartialView("_nameOfPartial");
}
[HttpPost]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public ActionResult _Create([Bind(Include = "CompanyID,Name,Address,PhoneNumber,URL,Email,Active")] Company company)
{
if (ModelState.IsValid)
{
db.Companies.Add(company);
db.SaveChanges();
return RedirectToAction("Index");
}
return PartialView("_NameOfPatial", company);
}
if you are showing partial list on your index then you should return like this
public ActionResult Index(PrintingListSearchFilter filter)
{
//your model logic
return Request.IsAjaxRequest() ? PartialView("_yourListPartialView", model) :
View("Index", model) as ActionResult;
}
