I have a couple of variations on the ajax depending on the flow of interactions on the page. But it's only the variables that changes. here is one of them:
$('#btn_skickaEnkel').bind('click', function () {
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: '/Contact/IntresseAnmälan/',
dataType: 'json',
data: {
Namn: $('#namn').val(),
Mail: $('#mail').val(),
Info: $('#meddelande').val(),
Nivå: $('#nivå').find(":selected").text(),
IsEnkel: true,
Telefon: $('#nr').val(),
ID: function () {
var url = window.location.pathname;
var id = url.substring(url.lastIndexOf('/') + 1);
return id;
}
},
traditional: true
});
});
In my controller i am unable to redirect or return a different view. At this point the data from JSON is no longer relevant because it's already been saved to DB.
My Controller:
public ActionResult IntresseAnmälan(BokningContainer bokning)
{
db = new DbContext();
//Saving some data to database(removed)
//Just determening the state of container obj.
if (bokning.IsEnkel)
{
//Geting som information from db (removed)
//Creating a mail (removed)
email.Send(bokning.Namn, bokning.Mail, body);
}
else
{
}
//db.SaveChanges();
//This part is not working, I think it's beacuase of the Ajax
return View("IntresseAnmälan");
}
The view is not rendered and I think it's related to the ajax. The view is simply not rendered. Is there some way to force returning it and ignoring the ajax? As I said the data is no longer needed because the content is already saved to the DB.
You cannot render view on ajax call,simply you can use form post method or just redirect it to desired action on "succcess" of ajax call as below:
$('#btn_skickaEnkel').bind('click', function () {
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: '/Contact/IntresseAnmälan/',
dataType: 'json',
data: {
Namn: $('#namn').val(),
Mail: $('#mail').val(),
Info: $('#meddelande').val(),
Nivå: $('#nivå').find(":selected").text(),
IsEnkel: true,
Telefon: $('#nr').val(),
ID: function () {
var url = window.location.pathname;
var id = url.substring(url.lastIndexOf('/') + 1);
return id;
}
},
traditional: true,
success: function(result) {
window.location.href = '#Url.Action("action", "Controller")';
}
});
});
I couldn't believe my eyes when I figured out this "Bugg". The problem was that I, at some point, changed the submit to a button. So the form was never submiting. Well, at least I learnt a bit about views and Ajax.
Sorry for taking your time.

How to send FormData and Form object through ajax, please check the code its not working but it will tell you what I want to achieve
And also please mention how to receive this in Controller.
Basically I want to send picture and formcollection to my controller
Thanks
$("#btn2").click(function () {
var data = new FormData($('.form').get(0));
$.ajax({
url: '#Url.Action("AddProduct", "Product")',
type: 'POST',
data: data,
cache: false,
contentType: false,
processData: false
});
});
Through googling I got this code but my controller still receiving null??
Controller
public void AddProduct(Product product, HttpPostedFileBase myImage){}
You can use form.serialize to send data to your controller.
$(document).ready( function() {
var form = $('#form2');
$.ajax( {
type: "POST",
url: form.attr( 'action' ),
data: form.serialize(),
success: function( response ) {
console.log( response );
}
} );
} );
I am developing a MVC application, where I have a scenario to refresh a part of the page basically ajax...
<div id="ajax" style="width:10%;float:left">
#foreach (var item in #Model.SModel.Where(x=>x.StudentId==13))
{
<li>#Html.DisplayFor(score => item.StudentName)</li>
}
This is the div (part of the page) which I need to refresh on a button click. I have 2 js files, data.js and render.js...
data.js contains a template as follows:
makeAJAXCall =
function (url, params, callback) {
$.ajax({
type: "get",
timeout: 180000,
cache: false,
url: url,
dataType: "json",
data: params,
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
success: function (result) {
if (callback) {
callback(result);
}
},
error: function (req, status, error) {
}
return null;
}
});
};
getGrid = function () {
makeAJAXCall(urlCollection["getGridInfo"], "", function (result) {
renderer.renderGridInfo('ajax', result);
});
};
and render.js file is as follows:
renderGridInfo = function (area, data) {
$("#" + area).text(data);
};
return {
renderGridInfo: renderGridInfo
};
In the loading page on button click function as :
Service.addURL('getGridInfo', '#Html.Raw(#Url.Action("getGridInfo", "AjaxController"))');
Service.getGrid();
In the ajax controller, the code is :
public JsonResult getGridInfo()
{
return Json(model, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
But the problem I am facing is, the controller is returning the JsonResult , but the 'div' accepts the model and so the output is [object] [object] button click
Question: Is there any way to refresh this 'div' from the Jsondata returned by the controller?
I have to follow this type of design without using AjaxForm.
Look what happens:
1) you returns Json: return Json(model, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
2) you put returned Json object to the div's value: $("#" + area).text(data);
that's why you end up with json's representation inside div
You need to change it as follows:
1) assume you put html for that div to model's field called NewHtml
2) eptract html from the property of returned json: var returnedHtml = data.NewHtml;
3) use html() method instead of text(): $("#" + area).html(returnedHtml);
I'm using jquery-ui autocomplete on a page I'm creating. On the same page I have some ajax events going on. During the other ajax events I'm adding an overlay to my page, so that all the links on the website aren't clickable anymore for the user. I don't want that to happen during the autocomplete.
autocomplete:
$(function() {
$( "#search_input" ).autocomplete({
source: '/search_autocomplete/',});
});
ajax:
$.ajax({
url: "/ajax_login/",
login_user: $("#login_user").val(),
password: $("#login_password").val(),
});
ajaxStart:
$("#loading_gif").ajaxStart(function() {
$("#overlay").show();
$(this).show();
});
To prevent the ajaxstart function from being executed during the ajax events where it's not necessary. I add
global:false,
to the corresponding ajaxfunctions. How can I do something similar during the autocomplete without changing the jquery-ui source?
For this you have to omit the shorthand call with source and change the call like this.
$('#search_input').autocomplete({
source: function (request, response) {
var DTO = { "term": request.term };
//var DTO = { "term": $('#search_input').val() };
$.ajax({
data: DTO,
global: false,
type: 'GET',
url: '/search_autocomplete/',
success: function (jobNumbers) {
//var formattedNumbers = $.map(jobNumbersObject, function (item) {
// return {
// label: item.JobName,
// value: item.JobID
// }
//});
return response(jobNumbers);
}
});
}
//source: '/search_autocomplete/'
});
The advantage of this long-hand method is
You can pass more than one parameter. Also the parameter name should not have to be term.
The short-hand notation expects an array of strings. Here you could return an array of objects also.
If you want $.ajax() to work a certain way most of the time but now all the time, then you probably shouldn't change its default behavior.
I recommend creating a function that wraps an ajax request in a function that enables and disables the overlay at the appropriate times. Call this function where you want the overlay to be used, and use plain $.ajax() for your autocomplete.
I would agree that naveen's answer is the best solution. In my case the vast amount of code that would require changing wasn't cost effective as we're in the process of doing a re-write and we needed a short term solution.
You can override the ajax call in jQuery UI, I copied the source for the _initSource function call that handles the AJAX request. Then simply added the global: false to the $.ajax options. The code here is based on jquery-ui 1.9.2, you may have to find the correct source for your version.
$.ui.autocomplete.prototype._initSource = function () {
var array, url,
that = this;
if ( $.isArray(this.options.source) ) {
array = this.options.source;
this.source = function( request, response ) {
response( $.ui.autocomplete.filter( array, request.term ) );
};
} else if ( typeof this.options.source === "string" ) {
url = this.options.source;
this.source = function( request, response ) {
if ( that.xhr ) {
that.xhr.abort();
}
that.xhr = $.ajax({
url: url,
data: request,
dataType: "json",
global: false,
success: function( data ) {
response( data );
},
error: function() {
response( [] );
}
});
};
} else {
this.source = this.options.source;
}
};
In development I make an Ajax post which works in development. However when I put it on the Test server it doesn't work because IIS has assigned the application a subfolder, and this is missing in my development environment.
I have found work around (see below) but I am the first to admit this should not be the solution, as I have to remember to call a function for the url everytime I make an Ajax call.
There must be a better way.
However the code will show you what I am fixing;
function OperationsManagerFlagClickFunc(userId) {
$.ajax({
url: GetUrl("/Users/UpdateOperationsManagerFlag"),
type: "POST",
data: { "userId": userId },
success: function (data) { }
});
}
function GetUrl(path) {
var pathArray = window.location.pathname.split('/');
if (pathArray[1] === "ITOC")
return "/ITOC" + path;
else
return path;
}
If you have your javascript in .aspx file, you can generate url like this:
function OperationsManagerFlagClickFunc(userId) {
$.ajax({
url: "<%= Url.Action("UpdateOperationsManagerFlag","User") %>",
type: "POST",
data: { "userId": userId },
success: function (data) { }
});
}
Why not have a variable defined separately, like siteUrl, that will hold your site's url, with different values on the 2 servers?
Then just do:
url: siteUrl + "/Users/UpdateOperationsManagerFlag"
There's got to be something I'm missing. I've tried using $.ajax() and $.post() to send a string to my ASP.NET MVC Controller, and while the Controller is being reached, the string is null when it gets there. So here is the post method I tried:
$.post("/Journal/SaveEntry", JSONstring);
And here is the ajax method I tried:
$.ajax({
url: "/Journal/SaveEntry",
type: "POST",
data: JSONstring
});
Here is my Controller:
public void SaveEntry(string data)
{
string somethingElse = data;
}
For background, I serialized a JSON object using JSON.stringify(), and this has been successful. I'm trying to send it to my Controller to Deserialize() it. But as I said, the string is arriving as null each time. Any ideas?
Thanks very much.
UPDATE: It was answered that my problem was that I was not using a key/value pair as a parameter to $.post(). So I tried this, but the string still arrived at the Controller as null:
$.post("/Journal/SaveEntry", { "jsonData": JSONstring });
Answered. I did not have the variable names set correctly after my first Update. I changed the variable name in the Controller to jsonData, so my new Controller header looks like:
public void SaveEntry(string jsonData)
and my post action in JS looks like:
$.post("/Journal/SaveEntry", { jsonData: JSONstring });
JSONstring is a "stringified" (or "serialized") JSON object that I serialized by using the JSON plugin offered at json.org. So:
JSONstring = JSON.stringify(journalEntry); // journalEntry is my JSON object
So the variable names in the $.post, and in the Controller method need to be the same name, or nothing will work. Good to know. Thanks for the answers.
Final Answer:
It seems that the variable names were not lining up in his post as i suggested in a comment after sorting out the data formatting issues (assuming that was also an issue.
Actually, make sure youre using the
right key name that your serverside
code is looking for as well as per
Olek's example - ie. if youre code is
looking for the variable data then you
need to use data as your key. –

#prodigitalson, that worked. The
variable names weren't lining up. Will
you post a second answer so I can
accept it? Thanks. – Mega Matt 6 hours

So he needed to use a key/value pair, and make sure he was grabbing the right variable from the request on the server side.
the data argument has to be key value pair
$.post("/Journal/SaveEntry", {"JSONString": JSONstring});
It seems dataType is missed. You may also set contentType just in case. Would you try this version?
$.ajax({
url: '/Journal/SaveEntry',
type: 'POST',
data: JSONstring,
dataType: 'json',
contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8'
});
Cheers.
Thanks for answer this solve my nightmare.
My grid
..
.Selectable()
.ClientEvents(events => events.OnRowSelected("onRowSelected"))
.Render();
<script type="text/javascript">
function onRowSelected(e) {
id = e.row.cells[0].innerHTML;
$.post("/<b>MyController</b>/GridSelectionCommand", { "id": id});
}
</script>
my controller
public ActionResult GridSelectionCommand(string id)
{
//Here i do what ever i need to do
}
The Way is here.
If you want specify
dataType: 'json'
Then use,
$('#ddlIssueType').change(function () {
var dataResponse = { itemTypeId: $('#ddlItemType').val(), transactionType: this.value };
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: '#Url.Action("StoreLocationList", "../InventoryDailyTransaction")',
data: { 'itemTypeId': $('#ddlItemType').val(), 'transactionType': this.value },
dataType: 'json',
cache: false,
success: function (data) {
$('#ddlStoreLocation').get(0).options.length = 0;
$('#ddlStoreLocation').get(0).options[0] = new Option('--Select--', '');
$.map(data, function (item) {
$('#ddlStoreLocation').get(0).options[$('#ddlStoreLocation').get(0).options.length] = new Option(item.Display, item.Value);
});
},
error: function () {
alert("Connection Failed. Please Try Again");
}
});
If you do not specify
dataType: 'json'
Then use
$('#ddlItemType').change(function () {
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: '#Url.Action("IssueTypeList", "SalesDept")',
data: { itemTypeId: this.value },
cache: false,
success: function (data) {
$('#ddlIssueType').get(0).options.length = 0;
$('#ddlIssueType').get(0).options[0] = new Option('--Select--', '');
$.map(data, function (item) {
$('#ddlIssueType').get(0).options[$('#ddlIssueType').get(0).options.length] = new Option(item.Display, item.Value);
});
},
error: function () {
alert("Connection Failed. Please Try Again");
}
});
If you want specify
dataType: 'json' and contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8'
Then Use
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: '#Url.Action("LoadAvailableSerialForItem", "../InventoryDailyTransaction")',
data: "{'itemCode':'" + itemCode + "','storeLocation':'" + storeLocation + "'}",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: 'json',
cache: false,
success: function (data) {
$('#ddlAvailAbleItemSerials').get(0).options.length = 0;
$('#ddlAvailAbleItemSerials').get(0).options[0] = new Option('--Select--', '');
$.map(data, function (item) {
$('#ddlAvailAbleItemSerials').get(0).options[$('#ddlAvailAbleItemSerials').get(0).options.length] = new Option(item.Display, item.Value);
});
},
error: function () {
alert("Connection Failed. Please Try Again.");
}
});
If you still can't get it to work, try checking the page URL you are calling the $.post from.
In my case I was calling this method from localhost:61965/Example and my code was:
$.post('Api/Example/New', { jsonData: jsonData });
Firefox sent this request to localhost:61965/Example/Api/Example/New, which is why my request didn't work.
