I have a following view in my project where i have one dropdown and one textbox and submit button.I want to execute following scenario.
On click of submit only,I want to display the table contents.So if there is data,it will display data or else it will display "No records found".Is it possible?
My view is as follows:
model mvclearn.Models.Employee
#{
ViewBag.Title = "menu";
}
#{
Layout = null;
}
<link href="~/Content/bootstrap.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<style>
.error {
color: red;
}
</style>
<div class="container">
<div class="container"style="width:30%">
#using (Html.BeginForm("save", "Test", FormMethod.Post))
{
#Html.DropDownListFor(m => m.Service_Code, Model.ser_code, "--select--", new { #class = "form-control", #placeholder = "Enter Service code" })
#Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => m.Service_Code, "", new { #class = "error" })
#Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.Service_Name, new { #class = "form-control", #placeholder = "Service Name" })
#Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => m.Service_Name, "", new { #class = "error" })
<input type="submit" value="submit" class="btn-block" />
}
<table class="table">
#{
if (Model.data!=null && Model.data.Count() > 0)
{
<tr>
<th>
#Html.DisplayName("Service_Code")
</th>
<th>
#Html.DisplayName("Service_Name")
</th>
</tr>
foreach (mvclearn.Models.Employee item in Model.data)
{
<tr>
<td>
#item.Service_Code
</td>
<td>
#item.Service_Name
</td>
</tr>
}
}
else
{
<p>No records found</p>
}
}
</table>
</div>

Answer 1

In your case, you have done a nice job but the way you are dealing with the model seems to be incorrect.You cannot use Model.data!= null statement,instead,I suggest you to do something like this.Check whether the Model's attributes are null or not!
if (Model.EmployeeName!=null ){
//your code here
}
Another possible reason for your problem is the model returns null values so check whether the model's attributes has the values when it is in the view.
Hope it helped.

You Can Embed Table tag in the If condition like this ...
#if(Model.data!=null && Model.data.Count() > 0)
{
<table>
<tr>
<td></td>
</tr>
</table>
}else{
<p>There is no records</p>
}
