Problems with partialview data - asp.net-mvc

Question

I have a problem with a partial view. The first time when it is rendered everything is ok, but after that some data is loosed.
This is how my page should look: this is when the partial view is rendered the first time
but when I'm clicking on a category to check his subcategories, the image is null, it is not visible anymore. (only the name is visible)
This is my partial view:
#model IEnumerable<OnlineCarStore.Models.CategoriesVM>
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
#using (Html.BeginForm("SubCategories", "Product"))
{
<div class="list-group col-sm-3" style="width:280px;">
#{var selected = string.Empty;
if (#HttpContext.Current.Session["selectedCar"] == null)
{
selected = string.Empty;
}
else
{
selected = #HttpContext.Current.Session["selectedCar"].ToString();
}
foreach (var c in Model)
{
<a href="#Url.Action("SubCategories", "Product", new { selected = #selected, id = #c.ID, category = #c.CategoryName })" class="list-group-item">
<span> #c.CategoryName</span>
</a>
}
}
</div>
<div class="col-sm-9">
#foreach (var c in Model)
{
<div class="card-group" style="width:200px; display: inline-block">
<div class="card card">
<a href="#Url.Action("SubCategories", "Product", new { selected = #HttpContext.Current.Session["selectedCar"].ToString(), id = #c.ID, category = #c.CategoryName })" id="linkOnImg" class="card-group">
<img class="card-img-top center-block" src="#string.Format("../content/images/categories/{0}.jpg", #c.AtpID)" alt=#c.CategoryName style="padding-top: 5px">
<div class="card-text text-center">
<p class="category-card-title ">
<span class="text-muted">#c.CategoryName</span>
</p>
</div>
</a>
</div>
</div>
}
</div>
}
</div>
and this is the Subcategoris view, where the partial view is rendered second time:
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
#Html.Partial("/Views/Home/CategorieTypes.cshtml");
Here is the Product controller Subcategories method:
public ActionResult SubCategories(string selected, int id, string category)
{
List<CategoriesVM> listOfCategories = new List<CategoriesVM>();
var list = db.Categories.ToList();
var root = list.GenerateTree(c => c.ID, c => c.ParentId).ToList();
TreeItem<Categories> found = null;
var test = new TreeItem<Categories>();
foreach (var rootNode in root)
{
found = TreeGenerator.Find(rootNode, (n) => n.Item.ID == id);
if (found != default(TreeItem<Categories>))
{
test = found;
break;
}
}
foreach (var item in found.Children.ToList())
{
CategoriesVM categoryv = new CategoriesVM();
categoryv.ID = item.Item.ID;
categoryv.AtpID = item.Item.AtpID;
categoryv.Childrens = item.Children.ToList();
categoryv.CategoryName = item.Item.AtpName;//.Name;
listOfCategories.Add(categoryv);
}
SiteMaps.Current.CurrentNode.Title = selected + " " + category;
var tests = found.Children.ToList();
if (found.Children.ToList().Count == 0 )
{
return View("Index");
}
else
{
return View("SubCategories", listOfCategories);
}
}
I've checked in developer tool if the source for the image is correct, and although it is correct, the image is not showed:
Can you please help me in this problem? What I do wrong? Why the images don't appear after the first render of the partial view? Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

The path of the partial view is /Views/Home/CategorieTypes.cshtml and the path of the images is /Content/images/categories. In the partial view you are using ../content/images/categories/ as the path of the images which means that it will search for the path /Views/Content/Images/Categories which is invalid.
Remove the two dots in the src property and add a ~ so it will be like: ~/Content/Images/Categories/{img}.
or
Add one more ../ in order to go one level down to the directory like:
../../Content/Images/Categories/{img}
