I have sample code like this:
<div class="cart">
<a onclick="addToCart('#Model.productId');" class="button"><span>Add to Cart</span></a>
</div>
<div class="wishlist">
<a onclick="addToWishList('#Model.productId');">Add to Wish List</a>
</div>
<div class="compare">
<a onclick="addToCompare('#Model.productId');">Add to Compare</a>
</div>
How can I write JavaScript code to call the controller action method?
Use jQuery ajax:
function AddToCart(id)
{
$.ajax({
url: 'urlToController',
data: { id: id }
}).done(function() {
alert('Added');
});
}
http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax/
Simply call your Action Method by using Javascript as shown below:
var id = model.Id; //if you want to pass an Id parameter
window.location.href = '#Url.Action("Action", "Controller")/' + id;
You are calling the addToCart method and passing the product id. Now you may use jQuery ajax to pass that data to your server side action method.d
jQuery post is the short version of jQuery ajax.
function addToCart(id)
{
$.post('#Url.Action("Add","Cart")',{id:id } function(data) {
//do whatever with the result.
});
}
If you want more options like success callbacks and error handling, use jQuery ajax,
function addToCart(id)
{
$.ajax({
url: '#Url.Action("Add","Cart")',
data: { id: id },
success: function(data){
//call is successfully completed and we got result in data
},
error:function (xhr, ajaxOptions, thrownError){
//some errror, some show err msg to user and log the error
alert(xhr.responseText);
}
});
}
When making ajax calls, I strongly recommend using the Html helper method such as Url.Action to generate the path to your action methods.
This will work if your code is in a razor view because Url.Action will be executed by razor at server side and that c# expression will be replaced with the correct relative path. But if you are using your jQuery code in your external js file, You may consider the approach mentioned in this answer.
If you do not need much customization and seek for simpleness, you can do it with built-in way - AjaxExtensions.ActionLink method.
<div class="cart">
#Ajax.ActionLink("Add To Cart", "AddToCart", new { productId = Model.productId }, new AjaxOptions() { HttpMethod = "Post" });
</div>
That MSDN link is must-read for all the possible overloads of this method and parameters of AjaxOptions class. Actually, you can use confirmation, change http method, set OnSuccess and OnFailure clients scripts and so on
If you want to call an action from your JavaScript, one way is to embed your JavaScript code, inside your view (.cshtml file for example), and then, use Razor, to create a URL of that action:
$(function(){
$('#sampleDiv').click(function(){
/*
While this code is JavaScript, but because it's embedded inside
a cshtml file, we can use Razor, and create the URL of the action
Don't forget to add '' around the url because it has to become a
valid string in the final webpage
*/
var url = '#Url.Action("ActionName", "Controller")';
});
});
Javascript Function
function AddToCart(id) {
$.ajax({
url: '#Url.Action("AddToCart", "ControllerName")',
type: 'GET',
dataType: 'json',
cache: false,
data: { 'id': id },
success: function (results) {
alert(results)
},
error: function () {
alert('Error occured');
}
});
}
Controller Method to call
[HttpGet]
public JsonResult AddToCart(string id)
{
string newId = id;
return Json(newId, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
You can simply add this when you are using same controller to redirect
var url = "YourActionName?parameterName=" + parameterValue;
window.location.href = url;
You can set up your element with
value="#model.productId"
and
onclick= addToWishList(this.value);
I am using this way, and worked perfectly:
//call controller funcntion from js
function insertDB(username,phone,email,code,filename) {
var formdata = new FormData(); //FormData object
//Iterating through each files selected in fileInput
formdata.append("username", username);
formdata.append("phone", phone);
formdata.append("email", email);
formdata.append("code", code);
formdata.append("filename", filename);
//Creating an XMLHttpRequest and sending
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.open('POST', '/Home/InsertToDB');//controller/action
xhr.send(formdata);
xhr.onreadystatechange = function () {
if (xhr.readyState == 4 && xhr.status == 200) {
//if success
}
}
}
in Controller:
public void InsertToDB(string username, string phone, string email, string code, string filename)
{
//this.resumeRepository.Entity.Create(
// new Resume
// {
// }
// );
var resume_results = Request.Form.Keys;
resume_results.Add("");
}
you can find the keys (Request.Form.Keys), or use it directly from parameters.
You can easily make a <a> link in your view.
<a hidden asp-controller="Home" asp-action="Privacy" id="link"></a>
then in you javascript code use this:
location.href = document.getElementById('link').href;

I have a partial view that I load in a page passing in a parameter. When the page loads, I setup two parameters helpMember and helpAnonymous.
{
var helpMember = Model.Content.Children.Where(c => c.DocumentTypeAlias.Equals("contextualHelp", StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase)).ElementAt(0);
var helpAnonymous = Model.Content.Children.Where(c => c.DocumentTypeAlias.Equals("contextualHelp", StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase)).ElementAt(1);
}
<div id="contextual-help-partial" >
#Html.Partial("ContextualHelp", helpMember)
</div>
With jQuery, how can I reload the Partial and pass helpAnonymous to it?
You have to create one method in controller and call that action using this. Suppose created action as loadhtml. return partialview from that action.
Controller action as
public ActionResult loadhtml(string helpMember){
ViewBag.helpMember = helpMember;
return PartialView("ContextualHelp");
}
jquery code as
$.ajax({
type: 'GET',
url: "/loadhtml?helpMember=#helpMember",
datatype:"html",
success: function (data) {
$("#contextual-help-partial").empty().html(data);
},
error: function (err) {
}
});
I have a link when pressed it requests a page from a controller via render ajax, Previously i used to pass only the id but now i would like to pass an extra parameter to the controller, how do i achieve this,
This is what i have tried
This is the link' which only passes a single parameter to the controller
Html::a('click me', ['#'],
['value' => Url::to('checktruck?id='.$model->id), //this is where the param is passed
'id' => 'perform']);
This is the controller code expecting 2 parameters:
public function actionChecktruck($id,$category) //it expects 2 parameters from above link
{
$truckdetails = Truck::find()->where(['id' =>$id])->one();
if (Yii::$app->request->post()) {
$checklistperform = new TodoTruckChecklist();
$truck = Truck::find()->where(['id'=>$id])->one();
$checklistperform->truck_id=$id;
$checklistperform->registered_by=Yii::$app->user->identity->id;
$checklistperform->save();
$truck->update();
var_dump($checklistperform->getErrors());
//var_dump($truck->getErrors());
}
else {
$truckcategory = Checklist::find()->where(['truck_category'=>$truckdetails->truck_category])->andWhere(['checklist_category'=>$category])->all();
return $this->renderAjax('truckyard/_checklistform', [
'truckcategory' => $truckcategory,'truckvalue'=>$id,
]);
}
}
This is my jquery code of another button that depends on the above controller during post request
$("#postbutn").click(function(e) {
$.post("checktruck?id="+truckid, //here i would like to pass 2 params
{checked:checked,unchecked:unchecked,truckid:truckid}
)
}
This is the jquery code when there is no post
How can i pass an extra parameter in the link or even the $.post request for the controller
First of all, as you are using JQuery ajax to submit the form, there is no need to set value for the link
Html::a('click me', ['#'],['id' => 'perform']);
using this id you can submit the request as follows
$this->registerJs("$('#perform').click(function(event){
event.preventDefault(); // to avoid default click event of anchor tag
$.ajax({
url: '".yii\helpers\Url::to(["your url here","id"=>$id,"param2"=>param2])."',
success: function (data) {
// you response here
},
});
});");
There is no need to mention method attribute as 'POST', you want to send through GET method
And finally in your controller, you need to accept parameters as follows
public function actionChecktruck() //it expects 2 parameters from above link
{
$id = Yii::$app->request->queryParams['id'];
$param2 = Yii::$app->request->queryParams['param2'];
$truckdetails = Truck::find()->where(['id' =>$id])->one();
if (Yii::$app->request->post()) {
$checklistperform = new TodoTruckChecklist();
$truck = Truck::find()->where(['id'=>$id])->one();
$checklistperform->truck_id=$id;
$checklistperform->registered_by=Yii::$app->user->identity->id;
$checklistperform->save();
$truck->update();
var_dump($checklistperform->getErrors());
//var_dump($truck->getErrors());
}
else {
$truckcategory = Checklist::find()->where(['truck_category'=>$truckdetails->truck_category])->andWhere(['checklist_category'=>$category])->all();
return $this->renderAjax('truckyard/_checklistform', [
'truckcategory' => $truckcategory,'truckvalue'=>$id,
]);
}
}
Try this one,
In View file
$this->registerJs("$('#postbutn').click(function(){
$.ajax({
url: '".yii\helpers\Url::to(["u r URL"])."',
method: 'POST',
data: {id:id, truckid:truckid },
success: function (data) {
},
});
});");
That's my script on my view.
$(function () {
$('#buttonx').on("click", function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
url: 'Ficha/VerificarPatrocinador',
contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8',
type: 'GET',
dataType: 'json',
data: {i: 100036},
success: function (data) {
$(data).each(function (index, item) {
//$('#NomePatr').append(item.Nome)
$("#NomePatr").val(item.Nome);
});
}
});
});
});
</script>
That's my action on my controller.
public JsonResult VerificarPatrocinador(int i)
{
var db = new FMDBEntities();
db.Configuration.ProxyCreationEnabled = false;
db.Configuration.LazyLoadingEnabled = false;
var consulta = db.Tabela_Participante.Where(p => p.ID_Participante == i);
return Json(consulta.
Select(x => new
{
Nome = x.Nome
}).ToList(), JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
I'm a newbie in Ajax/Jquery, when I exclude the parameter it is ok, however, when I try to put the data: {i: 100036} in my script and the parameter in my action. It doesn't work. Why is it happening?
The controller is going fine. The parameter even passes, but I can't return this result in my View.
Thank you.
use [HttpPost] attribute on your controller method
[HttpPost]
public JsonResult VerificarPatrocinador(int i)
{
//Write Your Code
}
and change the ajax type attribute from "GET" to "POST" and use JSON.stringify. Also check the url carefully. your ajax should look like this
$(function () {
$('#buttonx').on("click", function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
url: 'Ficha/VerificarPatrocinador',
contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8',
type: 'POST',
dataType: 'json',
data: JSON.stringify({i: 100036}),
success: function (data) {
$(data).each(function (index, item) {
//$('#NomePatr').append(item.Nome)
$("#NomePatr").val(item.Nome);
});
}
});
});
});
Hope it will help you
I think that #StephenMuecke may be on to something, because I was able to reproduce the (intended) logic with a new project.
The first thing to determine is where the code is going wrong: the server or the client.
Try using the Visual Studio debugger, and placing a breakpoint in VerificarPatrocinador. Then run the client code to see if the breakpoint is hit. When this succeeds, this means the problem is on the client end.
From there use the web browser's debugger in order to determine what is happening. Use the .fail function on the return result from .ajax in order to determine if there was a failure in the HTTP call. Here is some sample code that you can use to analyze the failure:
.fail(function (jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) {
alert(textStatus);
});
For more information check out http://api.jquery.com/jquery.ajax/
Change following code when ajax success
$.each(data, function (index, item) {
$("#NomePatr").val(item.Nome);
});
because when you are getting data as object of array, array or collection you can iterate using this syntax and then you can pass to var,dom...and so on where you want to display or take.
jQuery.each() means $(selector).each() you can use for dom element like below syntax: for example
<ul>
<li>foo</li>
<li>bar</li>
</ul>
<script>
$("li").each(function( index ) {
console.log( index + ": " + $( this ).text() );
});
</script>
Using GET is working fine but if it is not secure because data is visible to user when it submit as query string.
while post have
Key points about data submitted using HttpPost
POST - Submits data to be processed to a specified resource
A Submit button will always initiate an HttpPost request.
Data is submitted in http request body.
Data is not visible in the url.
It is more secured but slower as compared to GET.
It use heap method for passing form variable
It can post unlimited form variables.
It is advisable for sending critical data which should not visible to users
so I hope you understand and change ajax type:'GET' to 'POST' if you want.
$.each() and $(selector).each()
Change this line
url: 'Ficha/VerificarPatrocinador'
to:
url: '/Ficha/VerificarPatrocinador'
Because when you use this url "Ficha/VerificarPatrocinador", it will call the API from url: current url + Ficha/VerificarPatrocinador,so it isn't correct url.
I have an HTML able, which I bind by using the following Action in MVC controller:
public ActionResult BindTable(int ? page)
{
int pageSize = 4;
int pageNumber = 0;
List<Users> _users = query.ToList();
return View(_users.ToPagedList(pageNumber, pageSize));
}
Below the table I have the following HTML:
<textarea class="form-control" style="resize:none;" rows="9" placeholder="Enter value here..." id="txtValue"></textarea>
<br />
<button style="float:right; width:100px;" type="button" onclick="CallFunction()" class="btn btn-primary">Update specific record</button>
The Javascript function responsible for calling the action is as following:
function CallFunction() {
if ($('#txtValue').val() !== '') {
$.ajax({
url: '/User/UpdateUser',
type: 'POST',
data: { txt: $('#txtValue').val() },
success: function (data) {
$('#txtValue').val('');
alert('User updated!');
},
error: function (error) {
alert('Error: ' + error);
}
});
}
And here is the Action responsible for updating the user:
public ActionResult UpdateUser(string txtValue)
{
var obj = db.Odsutnost.Find(Convert.ToInt32(1));
if(obj!=null)
{
obj.Text= txtValue;
obj.Changed = true;
db.SaveChanges();
return RedirectToAction("BindTable");
}
return RedirectToAction("BindTable");
}
Everything works fine. But the table doesn't updates once the changes have been made ( it doesn't binds ?? )...
Can someone help me with this ???
P.S. It binds if I refresh the website.. But I want it to bind without refreshing the website...
I created a BIND function with Javascript, but it still doesn't binds:
function Bind() {
$(document).ready(function () {
var serviceURL = '/User/BindTable';
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: serviceURL,
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
});
});
}
You're not actually updating the page after receiving the AJAX response. This is your success function:
function (data) {
$('#txtValue').val('');
alert('User updated!');
}
So you empty an input and show an alert, but nowhere do you modify the table in any way.
Given that the ActionResult being returned is a redirect, JavaScript is likely to quietly ignore that. If you return data, you can write JavaScript to update the HTML with the new data. Or if you return a partial view (or even a page from which you can select specific content) then you can replace the table with the updated content from the server.
But basically you have to do something to update the content on the page.
In response to your edit:
You create a function:
function Bind() {
//...
}
But you don't call it anywhere. Maybe you mean to call it in the success callback?:
function (data) {
$('#txtValue').val('');
Bind();
alert('User updated!');
}
Additionally, however, that function doesn't actually do anything. For starters, all it does is set a document ready handler:
$(document).ready(function () {
//...
});
But the document is already loaded. That ready event isn't going to fire again. So perhaps you meant to just run the code immediately instead of at that event?:
function Bind() {
var serviceURL = '/User/BindTable';
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: serviceURL,
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
});
}
But even then, you're still back to the original problem... You don't do anything with the response. This AJAX call doesn't even have a success callback, so nothing happens when it finishes. I guess you meant to add one?:
function Bind() {
var serviceURL = '/User/BindTable';
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: serviceURL,
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
success: function (data) {
// do something with the response here
}
});
}
What you do with the response is up to you. For example, if the response is a completely new HTML table then you can replace the existing one with the new one:
$('#someParentElement').html(data);
Though since you're not passing any data or doing anything more than a simple GET request, you might as well simplify the whole thing to just a call to .load(). Something like this:
$('#someParentElement').load('/User/BindTable');
(Basically just use this inside of your first success callback, so you don't need that whole Bind() function at all.)
That encapsulates the entire GET request of the second AJAX call you're making, as well as replaces the target element with the response from that request. (With the added benefit that if the request contains more markup than you want to use in that element, you can add jQuery selectors directly to the call to .load() to filter down to just what you want.)
I am trying to display some data from my database that is dependent on some input from the user. I am using an ajax request to get the data, send it back to a function in my controller, and then export it back to my view. I would like to collect this data and display it without going to another view (I just hide the previous form and unhide the new form).
Here is the relevant code:
Javascript:
$('#submit_one').on('click', function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
if(! $(this).hasClass('faded')) {
var fbid = $("input[name='like']:checked").val();
//variable to be collected is fbid
request = $.ajax({
url: "http://crowdtest.dev:8888/fans/pick_favorite",
type: "post", success:function(data){},
data: {'fbid': fbid} ,beforeSend: function(data){
console.log(data);
}
});
to_welcome_two();
}
});
function to_welcome_two()
{
$('#welcome_one').addClass('hidden');
$('#welcome_two').removeClass('hidden');
}
Controller functions:
public function pick_favorite() {
$fbid=Input::get('fbid');
return Artist::specific_artist($fbid);
}
public function getWelcome() {
return View::make('fans.welcome')
->with('artists', Artist::artists_all())
->with('favorite_artist', Artist::favorite_artist())
->with('pick', FansController::pick_favorite());
}
Model function:
public static function specific_artist($fbid) {
$specific_artist = DB::table('artists')
->where('artists.fbid', '=', $fbid)
->get();
return $specific_artist;
}
The view is on the "welcome" page. My question is how do I display the model data in my view and make sure it is printing out the correct data from the fbid input?
I tried something like this:
#foreach($pick as $p)
<span class="artist_text">{{$p->stage_name}}</span>
<br>
<span class="artist_city">{{$p->city}}</span>
#endforeach
but this is not printing out anything. Any ideas?
i see lots of issues here.
Server side:
public function pick_favorite().... what does it do? it just returns some data.
in public function getWelcome() { , you wrote, FansController::pick_favorite(). supposing both are the same method, you are accessing a static method whilst the method is non static. you are getting an error for this but you are not seeing it because you didn't define fail().
and i don't see what the point of declaring a method which does nothing else then a model call which you can do directly.
e.g let's say i have a fooModel
public function index(){}
in controller, i can just write,
public function bar()
{
$model = new fooModel;
return View::make(array('param1'=>$model->index()));
}
or if i declare index() method in fooModel as static, then i can write,
public function bar()
{
return View::make(array('param1'=>fooModel::index()));
}
Client side:
now in your javascript,
$('#submit_one').on('click', function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
if(! $(this).hasClass('faded')) {
var fbid = $("input[name='like']:checked").val();
//variable to be collected is fbid
request = $.ajax({
url: "http://crowdtest.dev:8888/fans/pick_favorite",
type: "post", success:function(data){},
data: {'fbid': fbid} ,beforeSend: function(data){
console.log(data);
}
});
to_welcome_two();
}
});
function to_welcome_two()
{
$('#welcome_one').addClass('hidden');
$('#welcome_two').removeClass('hidden');
}
why it should print any data? you didn't asked the script to print anything. where is your .done or .success param in your code?
If you look at your console, you'l get lots of php errors, i am almost sure of.
an advice, you need to lear some basics. e.g. jquery ajax call.
a basic ajax call can be
var request = $.ajax({
url: "script.php",
type: "POST",
data: { id : menuId },
dataType: "html"
});
request.done(function( msg ) {
$( "#log" ).html( msg );
});
request.fail(function( jqXHR, textStatus ) {
alert( "Request failed: " + textStatus );
});
implement it in your code and then see what errors it throws.
Conclusion:
1st one will be (supposing rest of your codes are ok) the static error. if you want to call it as static, declare it as static. but a static function in controller? i don't see any purpose of it.
and then start the debug. your problem is both client and server side. deal one by one.
