Submitting a form from a partial view - c#

I'm trying to submit a form from a modal generated in a partial view. And I don't know how to get back the submitted form.
Here is the view:
#model Myproject.ViewModels.GetMonitorFromDeviceViewModel
#{
ViewBag.Title = "GetMonitorFromDevice";
Layout = "~/Views/Shared/ManagementPage.cshtml";
}
<div id="Accordion">
#{
foreach (var type in Model.AvailableTypesAvailableMonitors)
{
<div class="card">
<div class="card-header">
<a class="card-link" data-toggle="collapse" data-parent="#accordion" href="##type">
#type
</a>
</div>
<div id="#type" class="collapse show">
<div class="card-body">
#{
foreach (var monitor in Model.ActiveMonitors)
{
if (monitor.Type == #type)
{
<p>
#monitor.Name
<span class="btn btn-xs btn-primary btnEdit" onclick="createModal('#Url.Action("NameMonitor", "DeviceManager" , new { idDevice = monitor.DeviceOwner.ID, monitorName = monitor.Name })')">Details</span>
</p>
}
}
}
</div>
</div>
</div>
}
}
</div>
And here is my modal at the bottom of the page:
<div class="modal fade" id="myModal" role="dialog" data-backdrop="static" data-keyboard="false">
<div class="modal-dialog">
<div class="modal-content" id="modelContent">
</div>
</div>
</div>
<script>
function createModal(url) {
$('#modelContent').load(url);
$('#myModal').modal('show');
}
</script>
And finally, here is my partial view that is displayed as a modal:
#model MyProject.ViewModels.NameMonitorModal
#using (Html.BeginForm("NameMonitor", "DeviceManager", FormMethod.Post))
{
<div class="modal-body">
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.NewName, htmlAttributes: new { #class = "control-label col-md-2" })
<div class="col-md-10">
#Html.EditorFor(model => model.NewName, new { htmlAttributes = new { #class = "form-control", #Value = Model.TrueName } })
#Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.NewName, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
</div>
</div>
#Html.HiddenFor(model => model.TrueName)
#Html.HiddenFor(model => model.IdDevice)
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<div class="form-group">
<div class="col-md-offset-2 col-md-10">
<input type="submit" value="Save name" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
}
In my controller, I have an action for my partial view called ActionResult NameMonitor.
In order to catch the submited form, I tried to add another action with the [HttpPost] tag with the same name but doesn't work. I also tried to use the main page action with the [HttpPost] tag but it doesn't work either. As you can see, I have specified the action and controller in the form itself but its still not working.
Now, I'm a little bit out of idea of how I can get the information from my modal back.

data-dismiss="modal" will close the modal without submitting the form, see Dismiss and submit form Bootstrap 3
You can change the submit button to call a JavaScript function to submit the form, then close the modal.
function submitModal() {
$('#myFormId').submit();
$('#myModal').modal('hide');
}

Bootstrap - present confirmation modal after post back to controller

I am trying to create a Bootstrap modal pop up "Ticket successfully created" once you submit a form which posts data through to IActionResult to add to database. However my modal is like transparent with just text and I'm also getting a runtime error of : Obj ref not set to an instance of object
I have a feeling that modal popup is causing the passing of data back to the controller to not work. What is the way around this?

You can use ViewBag for open bootstrap modal after successfully return from server to client
Client Side View
#if(ViewBag.SuccessfullyTicketCreated != null)
{
<script>
$('#myModal').modal('show'); // open model by use jQuery
</script>
}
Server side Controller
_db.SaveChanges();
ViewBag.SuccessfullyTicketCreated = true; // create ViewBag after savechange success
I hope help you simple way
Only use of ajax call can solve your problem without creating any further issues. if you are not using jQuery, you can also send ajax call using Javascript using fetch() method.

MVC partial view controller not running on load

Im trying to load a MVC partial view in to a modal popup. The popup contains a drop down list which I am trying to populate on the ActionResult that loads when the view is loaded. The problem is the controller code isn't getting ran.
My code is as follows -
View:
<div id="modal_form_horizontal_addnote" class="modal fade">
<div class="modal-dialog modal-md">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header bg-primary">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal">×</button>
<h5 class="modal-title">Add Note</h5>
</div>
#Html.Partial("AddNote", new IHD.Core.Models.CreateTicketNoteModel { TicketHeaderId = Model.Id })
</div>
</div>
The partial view:
#model IHD.Core.Models.CreateTicketNoteModel
#using (Html.BeginForm("AddNote", "Ticket", FormMethod.Post))
{
#Html.HiddenFor(model => model.TicketHeaderId)
#Html.AntiForgeryToken()
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
<div class="tab-content">
<div class="tab-pane active" id="highlighted-justified-tab1">
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.WorkType, htmlAttributes: new { #class = "control-label col-md-2" })
<div class="col-md-12">
#Html.DropDownListFor(model => model.WorkType, new SelectList(Model.WorkTypeOptions, "Key", "Value", Model.WorkType), new { #name = "select", #class = "form-control" })
#Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.WorkType, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="col-md-offset-2 col-md-10">
<input type="submit" value="Create" class="btn btn-default" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
}
The controller:
public ActionResult AddNotePhase(int id = 0, int taskId = 0)
{
CreateTicketPhaseNoteModel note = new CreateTicketPhaseNoteModel();
note.TicketHeaderId = id;
// Populate the work type dropdown list
note.WorkTypeOptions.Add("", "-- Select a Work Type --");
note.WorkTypes = _workTypeService.GetAll().ToList();
foreach (var c in note.WorkTypes)
{
note.WorkTypeOptions.Add(c.Id.ToString(), c.Description);
}
//note.PhaseTask = taskId;
return PartialView(note);
}
You controller code isn't being hit because you are passing a model to the partial view and not calling the action. You need to use #{Html.RenderAction();} instead to call your action with the appropriate values.

MVC Razor form button not calling controller specified

So within my view, I have:
<div id="createProductModal" class="modal fade" tabindex="-1" role="dialog">
<div class="modal-dialog" role="document">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<h5 class="modal-title">Create Product</h5>
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close">
<span aria-hidden="true">×</span>
</button>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
#using (Html.BeginForm("Create", "Product", FormMethod.Post, new { id = "createProductForm", #class = "form-horizontal"}))
{
<div class="form-group">
<div class="col-md-4">
#Html.LabelFor(m => Model.Product.Name, new { #class = "control-label" })
</div>
<div class="col-sm-8">
#Html.TextBoxFor(m => Model.Product.Name, new { #class = "form-control" })
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="col-md-4">
#Html.LabelFor(m => Model.Product.IsActive, new { #class = "control-label" })
</div>
<div class="col-sm-8">
#Html.CheckBoxFor(m => Model.Product.IsActive, new { #class = "form-control" })
</div>
</div>
}
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" data-dismiss="modal" onclick="$('#createProductForm').submit();">Add product</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-dismiss="modal">Cancel</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
And then in my ProductsController I have added an action like so:
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Create(Product product)
{
return View();
}
But for some reason when clicking submit it redirects me to this URL:
http://localhost/Product/Create
And throws a 404 error like so:
The resource cannot be found.
I've not defined a route within the route configs surely this shouldn't matter?
Does anyone understand what i seem to be doing wrong?
Second parameter of Html.BeginForm is the controller name. Given that you have a ProductsController, instead of
Html.BeginForm("Create", "Product", ...
Try
Html.BeginForm("Create", "Products"
Check FormExtensions.BeginForm

Popup partial view in a bootstrap model popup

#Html.ActionLink("edit", "Edit", "MedQuantityType", new { id = item.Med_quan_typeId }, new

Please help anyone how to popup partial view, once controller return partial view
From Task<ActionResult > to Task<PartialViewResult> then change your ActionLink to RenderPartial.

Change the return type of your action to Task<PartialView>

how to do a create partial view inside a edit view?

I can add a create partial view within a modal bootstrap so that it can add value in the table with a edit view of the field value ?
My create partial view

Can I do this with a partial view or the best way to do this?
create a property of Table2 type in your Table1 Model like below :
public class Table1
{
public Table2 table2 {get; set;}
//other properties of Table1 Model
}
Now in your Edit View:
<div class="modal-body">
#{
Html.RenderPartial("CreateTable2", Model.table2);
}
</div>
Now in your Action of the Controller :
public ActionResult Edit(Table1 model)
{
var editPartialViewData = model.table2;
// Do whatever you want to do with this data
}
