This is how i am loading on page load state and city dropdown:
My Controller method:
This is the first method which is calling when page is loaded.
public ActionResult Index()
{
var states = GetStates();
var cities = Enumerable.Empty<SelectListItem>();
ViewBag.States = states;
ViewBag.Cities = cities;
}
private IEnumerable<SelectListItem> GetStates()
{
using (var db = new DataEntities())
{
return db.States.Select(d => new SelectListItem { Text = d.StateName, Value =d.Id.ToString() });
}
}
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult GetCities(int id)
{
using (var db = new DataEntities())
{
var data = db.Cities.Where(d=>d.StateId==id).Select(d => new { Text = d.CityName, Value = d.Id }).ToList();
return Json(data, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
}
My View:
IEnumerable<SelectListItem> States = ViewBag.States;
IEnumerable<SelectListItem> Cities = ViewBag.Cities;
#Html.DropDownList("State", States, "Select State", new { onchange="loadCities(this)"})
#Html.DropDownListFor(m => m.CityId, Cities, "Select City", new { id="ddlCity"})
function loadCities(obj) {
$.ajax({
url: "/Home/GetCities",
data: { id: $(obj).val() },
contentType:"application/json",
success:function(responce){
var html = '<option value="0">Select City</option>';
$(responce).each(function () {
html += '<option value="'+this.Value+'">'+this.Text+'</option>'
});
$("#ddlCity").html(html);
}
});
}
Any better way then this to load state and city dropdown?

You approach using ajax is fine although I would recommend a few better practices including using a view model with properties for StateID, CityID StateList and CityList, and using Unobtrusive JavaScript rather than polluting you markup with behavior, and generating the first ("please select") option with a null value rather than 0 so it can be used with the [Required] attribute
HTML
#Html.DropDownList(m => m.StateID, States, "Select State") // remove the onchange
#Html.DropDownListFor(m => m.CityID, Cities, "Select City") // why change the default ID?
SCRIPT
var url = '#Url.Action("GetCities", "Home")'; // use the helper (dont hard code)
var cities = $('#CityID'); // cache the element
$('#StateID').change(function() {
$.getJSON(url, { id: $(this).val() }, function(response) {
// clear and add default (null) option
cities.empty().append($('<option></option>').val('').text('Please select'));
$.each(response, function(index, item) {
cities.append($('<option></option>').val(item.Value).text(item.Text));
});
});
});
If you were rendering multiple items (say you were asking the user to select their last 10 cities they visited), you can cache the result of the first call to avoid repeated calls where their selections may include cities from the same state.
var cache = {};
$('#StateID').change(function() {
var selectedState = $(this).val();
if (cache[selectedState]) {
// render the options from the cache
} else {
$.getJSON(url, { id: selectedState }, function(response) {
// add to cache
cache[selectedState] = response;
.....
});
}
});
Finally, in response to your comments regarding doing it without ajax, you can pass all the cities to the view and assign them to a javascript array. I would only recommend this if you have a few countries, each with a few cities. Its a matter of balancing the slight extra initial load time vs the slight delay in making the ajax call.
In the controller
model.CityList = db.Cities.Select(d => new { City = d.CountryID, Text = d.CityName, Value = d.Id }).ToList();
In the view (script)
// assign all cities to javascript array
var allCities= JSON.parse('#Html.Raw(Json.Encode(Model.CityList))');
$('#StateID').change(function() {
var selectedState = $(this).val();
var cities = $.grep(allCities, function(item, index) {
return item.CountryID == selectedState;
});
// build options based on value of cities
});
This is a correct approach, but you can simplify your javascript:
function loadCities(obj) {
$.getJSON("/Home/GetCities", function (data) {
var html = '<option value="0">Select City</option>';
$(data).each(function () {
html += '<option value="'+this.Value+'">'+this.Text+'</option>'
});
$("#ddlCity").html(html);
});
}
Further possible simplification:
Add the default item (Select City) server-side, so your javascript will be smaller.
Here's how I'd do it without the page refresh, assuming the list of cities isn't too long.
I'm assuming you can create a GetStatesAndCities method to return a Dictionary.
public ActionResult Index()
{
Dictionary<string, List<String>> statesAndCities = GetStatesAndCities();
ViewBag.StatesAndCities = Json(statesAndCities);
}
Then in the view:
var states = JSON.parse(#ViewBag.StatesAndCities);
function loadCities(obj) {
var cities = states[$(obj).val()];
var html = '<option value="0">Select City</option>';
$(cities).each(function () {
html += '<option value="'+this.Value+'">'+this.Text+'</option>'
});
$("#ddlCity").html(html);
}
This way when the state is changed the cities field with update immediately with no need for callback.
disclaimer: This is not a code answer, there are plenty other answers.
I think best way to keep yourself happy to seperate UI pages from data => turn them into API calls:
/GetCities
/GetStates
Now you can simply leave the select's empty on Razor rendering the page. And use a Jquery/Bootstrap plugin to create an AJAX select box.
This way when the user stops typing his search, this search string can than be send with the AJAX call (eg: /GetStates?search=test) and then a small result set can be send back to the website.
This gives:
Better separation in serveside code
Better User eXperience.
Smaller page loads (since you no longer send all the options to user when he requests the page, only when he opens the select box).
How about using Knockout?
Knockout is a JavaScript library that helps you to create rich, responsive display and editor user interfaces with a clean underlying data model
You have to use ajax for your cities. But with knockout you dont need to write
var html = '<option value="0">Select City</option>';
$(responce).each(function () {
html += '<option value="'+this.Value+'">'+this.Text+'</option>'});
$("#ddlCity").html(html);
in your javascript.Knockout makes it simple.
You can simply write:
function CityModel() {
var self = this; // that means this CityModel
self.cities = ko.observableArray([]);
self.getCities = function () {
$.ajax({
url: "/Home/GetCities",
data: { id: $(obj).val() },
contentType: "application/json",
success: self.cities
});
}
}
ko.applyBindings(new CityModel());
thats all. But you have to bind your data into html elements.
Instead of using :
#Html.DropDownListFor(m => m.CityId, Cities, "Select City", new { id="ddlCity"})
You can use:
<select data-bind="options:cities,optionsValue:"Id",optionsText:"CityName",optionsCaption:"Select City""></select>
or you can mix razor and knockout:
#Html.DropDownListFor(m => m.CityId, Cities, "Select City", new { id="ddlCity",data_bind:"options:cities,optionsValue:\"Id\",optionsText:\"CityName\""})
One more thing you have to call GetCities when State changes, you can :
#Html.DropDownList("State", States, "Select State", new {data_bind:"event:\"change\":\"$root.GetCities\""})
Dont be scare with \"\" things this because " is an escape character and we have to say to razor i want to use " by using \ before it.
You can find more info about knockout :Knockout
And mixing with razor: Razor and Knockout
Ps: yes using knockout is suspend us from Razor and Mvc. You have to write another ViewModel . But like this situations ko is helpful. Mixing razor and knockout is another option for you.

I'm having a foreach that it gives me a list of values that when click it call a controller:
#foreach (var item in Model)
{
<div>#Html.ActionLink(item.Text, "UpdateController",
new { subSectionID = item.Value, subsectionName = item.Text })</div>
}
I would like to do this but now using a dropdown list where clicking on the value redirects me to the controller.
If someone knows how to do it or do it in some other way, maybe using Select in html, it would help me, thanks!
Try the following:
<script type="text/javascript">
$('#subsec').change(function () {
var url = $(this).val();
if (url != null && url != '') {
window.location.href = url;
}
});
</script>
#Html.DropDownListFor(m => Model.GetEnumerator().Current,
Model.Select(d =>
{
return new SelectListItem() {
Text = d.Text,
Value = Url.Action("Your_Action_Name", "Your_Controller_Name", new { subSectionID = d.Value, subsectionName = d.Text })
};
}),
"-Select a value-",
new { id = "subsec" })

I am currently trying to populate the values for a car's model based on the selected make in a dropdownlist. I am new to coding so I am not sure what my mistake is. The project doesn't give me any errors but no values are displayed when I selected the make.
This is my Partial View that I am adding into my Create View.
#model IgnitionHubPractice.Models.MakeModelDorpdownView
<div class="form-horizontal">
<div class="form-group">
#if (ViewBag.MakeList != null)

</div>
</div>

$(document).ready(function () {
$("#MakeID").change(function () {
$.get("/Cars/GetModelList",{ MakeID: $("MakeID").val() }, function (data) {
$("#ModelID").empty();
$.each(data, function (index, row) {
$("#ModelID").append("<option value ='" + row.ModelID + "' >" + row.Name + </option>")
});
});
})
});
</script>
This is my controller
public ActionResult Create([Bind(Include = "CarID,Year,Color,Mileage,Cost,MarketValue,BodyType,Drive,Notes,Available,VinNumber,CarLotID,ModelID")] Car car, [Bind(Include ="MakeID,Name")] Make make)

return View(car);
}

{
db.Configuration.ProxyCreationEnabled = false;
List<Model> ModelList = db.Models.Where(x => x.MakeID == MakeID).ToList();

In MVC you try to create a cascading drop down. So for easy understanding you can check the below link. It contanin detailed information for controller and View with Jquery part.
Please visit this link: Cascading Drop down List With MVC And AJAX
this is jquery function-
now i am able to pass the city name and save it to database but how to change locality with change in city name. i am zero at jquery.Unable to understand this line $.getJSON(localityUrl, { ID: $(this).val() }, function (data) { plzzz suggest me some changes to be made--
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
var localityUrl = '#Url.Action("FetchLocalities")';
var localities = $('#SelectedLocality');
$('#SelectedCity').change(function () { localities.empty();
subLocalities.empty();
$.getJSON(localityUrl, { ID: $(this).val() }, function (data) {
if (!data) {
return;
}
localities.append($('<option></option>').val('').text('Please select'));
$.each(data, function (index, item) {
localities.append($('<option></option>').val(item.Value).text(item.Text));
// localities.append($('<option data-lat=' + item.Latitude + ' data-lng=' + item.Longitude + '></option>').text(item.Text));
});
});
})
and my city drop down is like this ---------
<div class="editor-label">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.SelectedCity)
</div>
<div class="editor-field">
<select id="SelectedCity" name="SelectedCity">
#foreach (var thisCity in Model.CityList)
{
<option value="#thisCity.Name" data-lat="#thisCity.Latitude" data-long="#thisCity.Longitude" data-name="#thisCity.Name" >#thisCity.Name</option>
}
</select>
#Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.SelectedCity)
</div>
and my cities in the service layer are like this---
public List<City> FetchCities()
{
List<City> cities = new List<City>();
cities.Add(new City() { Id = 1, Name = "--Select Your City--", Latitude = 28.6139M, Longitude = 77.2090M });
cities.Add(new City() { Id = 2, Name = "Faridabaad", Latitude = 28.4211M, Longitude = 77.3078M });
return cities;
}
and my localities are like this---
public List<Locality> FetchLocalities()
{
List<Locality> localities = new List<Locality>();
localities.Add(new Locality() { Id = 1, CityName = "Faridabaad", Name = "East Faridabaad" });
localities.Add(new Locality() { Id = 2, CityName = "Faridabaad", Name = "West Faridabaad" });
return localities;
}
now my controller is something like this to fetch localities--
public JsonResult FetchLocalities(string name)
{
var data = _localityService.FetchLocalities()
//.Where(l => l.CityId == Id)
.Where(l => l.CityName == name)
.Select(l => new { Value = l.CityName, Text = l.Name });
return Json(data, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
localityUrl is the url your calling- in your case it would be var localityUrl = '#Url.Action("FetchLocalities", "yourControllerName")';
{ ID: $(this).val() } is the data your passing to the controller, in your case it needs to be { name: $(this).val() } because your method has parameter string name (not ID) and $(this).val() equates to the value of the selected option
and data in function (data) is the data your returning back from the controller method, in your case a collection of objects containing 2 properties, Value and Text
Instead of using $.getJSON() you can make an ajax call to your controller action and reload all the localities separately by passing the desired parameter.
I have a list of Items that I want the user to sort using a Jquery sortable.
the structure of the items is like this:
public class SortableItems
{
public int Code { get; set; }
public byte? Priority { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public int IsActive { get; set; }
}
in my view I render the sortable inside a form in the following way:
#using (Html.BeginForm("TestAction", "TestController", FormMethod.Post, new { id = "submitTest" }))
{
<ul id="sortable" style="padding:0px;">
#for (int i = 0; i < Model.List.Count(); i++)
{
<li class="ui-state-default">
#Html.HiddenFor(x => Model.List[i].Code, new { #class = "id" })
#Html.HiddenFor(x => Model.List[i].Priority, new { #class = "order" })
<span class="ui-icon ui-icon-arrowthick-2-n-s"></span>
#Model.List[i].Name
</li>
}
</ul>
<input type="submit" class="btn btn-primary" value="Update" />
}
Now the user can sort the N items in the list to their hearts desire. But I have not found a way to update the pidden value for Priority (order of the items that the user has sorted)
How can I persist the order of the items to my controller?
this is how I managed to solve the problem:
on the client side I did the following:
var neworder = new Array();
$("#sortable").disableSelection();
$("#sortable").sortable({
stop: function (event, ui) {
neworder = new Array();
$('#sortable li').each(function () {
//get the id
var id = $(this).attr("data-id");
neworder.push(id);
});
}
});
$(function () {
$('#submitTest').submit(function () {
if (neworder.length < 1) {
return false;
}
$.ajax({
url: "GuardarPrioridad", type: "POST", dataType: "json",
data: { orden: neworder.toString() },
success: function (result) {
$('#ShowResultHere').text(result);
$("#submitTest").hide();// .tex.html(result);
}
});
return false;
});
});
each time the user moves an element I update an array that conatins the IDs of the elements in the order that the user put them in.
I then submit this array via ajax and it is recieved by the controller.
and my controller looks like this:
public JsonResult SavePriority(string orden)
{
string[] data= orden.Split(',');
for (int i = 0; i < droguerias.Length; i++)
{
//save to DB
}
return Json("Saved!");
}
I my view I can add 'actions'. A action can be a email or sms. If i make a action i show a table in the view. So if I have 5 actions and I push on the submit button then i want the actions send to the Model.
My View:
<table id="action-detail-table" class="table table-striped table-bordered detail-table hide">
<thead id="headActions"></thead>
<tbody id="allActions"></tbody>
</table>
#Html.HiddenFor(m => m.Actions.Type, new { id = "action-types-type", name = "action-types-type" })
#Html.HiddenFor(m => m.Actions.Contact, new { id = "action-types-contact", name = "action-types-contact" })
Javascript in the view:
$('#addAlertModal form').submit(function (e) {
var actionType = new Array();
var contact = new Array();
$('#allActions tr').each(function () {
actionType.push(JSON.stringify($(this).find("td:eq(0)").text()));
contact.push(JSON.stringify($(this).find("td:eq(1)").text()));
});
$('#action-types-type').val(actionType);
$('#action-types-contact').val(contact);
});
function addAction() {
if ($.trim($('#allActions').find('td').text()).length == 0) {
$('#headActions').append("<tr><th>Actie</th><th>Naar</th></tr>");
}
if ($('#action-type').val() == "Email") {
$('#allActions').append($('#allActions').innerHTML + "<tr><td> Email </td><td>" + $('#action-email').val() + "</td></tr>");
}
else if ($('#action-type').val() == "SMS") {
$('#allActions').append($('#allActions').innerHTML + "<tr><td> SMS </td><td>" + $('#action-sms').val() + "</td></tr>");
}
}
And my Model:
public class AlertAction
{
public List<string> Type { get; set; }
public List<string> Contact { get; set; }
}
Now i get only 1 long string ofcourse. How can i fix this? I want to fill the 2 lists in the view. But #Model.Actions.Type.Add() doesn't work.
I switched away from using stringify to using postify a while ago which I've personally found better to work with as it works with MVC's default model binding. (Readme)
Example usage:
var data = {Type: [], Contact: []};
for (var i = 1; i <= 5; i++) {
data.Type.push("Type " + i.toString());
data.Contact.push("Contact" + i.toString());
}
$.post('someurl', $.postify(data), function(response) {
// process response
});
