I am a newbie, i am trying to create a view where every time i click on add more link next to a Textbox, another text box appears. How do i do that? I searched the same question on this site but i could not find a solution.
You'll have to create an array (string[] Smth)in your model. Then you have to make your "add more" link to submit your form to controller action that will add another element to this array and roundtrip back to view.
You may take a look at the following article which illustrates how you could handle dynamic rows.

This would save loads of time when testing a specfic section which is far down the form and the form is configured in a Wizard View.
I just wondered whether there is a querystring parameter or xpath setting to put in xforms-inspector which will save us endless clicks on the Next button! So far the best way I have found is to disable the Wizard View so that the form shows vertically.
This isn't currently supported, but it sounds like a worthwhile feature to have, and I've created an RFE for this feature.
I don't understand why you have to click next all the time, you should be able to just click on the section name in the table of contents.
I have a website where I want users to be able to select what type of user they are during the registration process.
Specifically, the implementation I want is to have two buttons on the signup page, one called "Seller" and one called "Buyer".
The user should be able to select only one button and once clicked, it should stay highlighted (I know this is just jquery so not the issue).
The selection should be stored in a column in my users model called :type.
It seems pretty straightforward, but the "f.select" form method seems to only implement a dropdown menu, so I am wondering how I can achieve this implementation of two buttons.
Since you're already going to use jQuery, you could add a hidden field for type, create 2 links and style them as buttons, and use jQuery to update the value of type when a user clicks one of the "buttons".
I have a view with a textbox and a search button, eg CustomerTextBox and CustomerSearchButton.
The list of customers is too long to display in a dropdown, and there has to be advanced search functions anyway.
What is the best practice in MVC to handle this case? When the user clicks on the search button, should it:
A. Load another view into a modal popup (eg /customers/search)?
B. Have the search form in a hidden div that expands when the search button is clicked?
C. Redirect the user to a search page by means of RedirectTo("/customers/search")?
I've only been doing MVC for 3 days so thanks to those who answer my questions that might have quite obvious answers that I cant see yet. :)
I think it's really up to you, what would fit your site better? If you need some advanced searching capabilities, create a /customers/search and redirect to it. If its somewhat simple and quick, use a modal popup, or expand a hidden div with a search field or two when clicking the button.

I've got a big ViewModel for a ContactViewModel with several addresses (default, invoice, delivery). This ContactViewModel I would like to edit within a DefaultAddress tab, etc. and I would like to know how to handle this without JavaScript? Is this possible?
Tell me if I'm off base here;
The way i think i'd approach this is to create a partial view which takes a list. the partial view would itterate through the list and create another partial view which is the tab.
on click of the tab i'd do a postback and store the clicked tab. this id then becomes the active tab.
when i come back to rebuild my page, the partialview for the actual tab would need to check to see if it's active and then make itself visible. if not visible then simply render nothing maybe.
This can be done with CSS. Here is an example: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/slidingdoors/
The selected tab/view will need to be rendered on the server. I can see each tab being a link, when the link is clicked the correct view and selected tab is returned.
Some of the css tabs don't work correctly in IE6. I'm not sure if the above link is one of them.
I have a created a list view for one of my controller's index action.
I have added a new column "Select This" to this list view, by using the view's source.
The column will contain radio button for each entry in the list. This i have achieved by just placing a radio button control from tool box in the "Select This" column. This i have done in the design of the view and when i run it, i get radio buttons, one for each of the entry. The page also has a link button and i want to call a controller action on this link button click which will receive the index of radio button selected. So if i select 5th radio button, how can receive 5 in the controller action.
How can i do this?

If you used plain HTML, your radio buttons will all have the same name, but different value. You will get one result in the POST, which will contain the selected value.
If you used ASP.net helpers, it's the same, but they will be generated for you: see here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd410596.aspx You will pass the same name (first parameter) and different values for each input (second parameter).
