Customized View + Update Form using ASP.NET MVC5 - c#

I am new to ASP.NET MVC5 and already familiar with adding a scaffold item using MVC5 Controller with views using the Entity Framework.
Is there a way I can customize the web pages like this:
where I can split the existing records (first tab has 5, second has 4, and so on...) from the database on different tabs and update the values once.
Any suggestions?

You can have a master view that gets partial view data via AJAX. Each partial view could have its own model. That way you can split the model logically into many views.
Once the values are changed you can post changes via JavaScript. You can use KnockoutJS to track changes to the model on the client side.

You can use Jquery UI Tabs to display the tabs. cut and paste the razor markup generated by the visual studio to the respective tabs

Using ASPX View Engine with MVC 5
(2 answers)
Closed 7 years ago.
I am new to ASP.Net MVC 5 and I want to know if Razor view engine is compulsory, or can you use ASPX view engine?
I try to create new application but I am not getting option to change the view engine.
Razor views are not compulsory. You can use aspx views. When creating your project there is a dropdown that allows you to select which view engine you want the template to use, if you are creating a project from a template.
However, this option doesn't make any difference to your project apart from the views that vs creates in the template. For example, change the name of one of your views, eg. Change home.cshtml to bob.cshtml. Run the project and navigate to the page that uses this view. You will get an error page which displays a list of views that the framework has attempted to find in different folders. This is an operation that uses convention and is the default method mvc will use to find views. Anyway, in the list you will see aspx and cshtml files, so you can go ahead and create an aspx view and mvc will pick it up. Note that the order of the list in the error message is the order mvc will look up each view. It will use the first one it comes across.
Razor views are not compulsory in ASP.net MVC..in ASP.net MVC there are two view Engine are there:
Razor View Engine:
1.Razor View Engine is an advanced view engine and introduced with MVC3. This is not a language but it is a markup syntax.
2.In Razor View Engine we use Layouts.
3.Razor Engine is a little slow compared to Aspx Engine.
Web Form/Aspx View Engine
1.ASPX View Engine is the default view engine for the ASP.NET MVC that is included with ASP.NET MVC from the beginning.
2.In ASPX View Engine we use masterPages.

Do you want to define a _layout page for you application which should have fixed sections like header, footer and then a middle section where different pages can populate them self. There are many examples on the web related to this. Search on Google "ASP.NET MVC layout pages". If you have any specific problem implementing any of those solutions, please post the question and people should be able to answer those.

Offline template rendering similar to MVC partial views?

I want to refactor an existing MVC action so that it can be used offline to build email content.
The action just fetches a model by Id and hands it over to the view, where the view renders it's fields. There is a foreach loop in the view.
My first thought was to just create an html file and do string search and replace in it.
Is there any template rendering libraries I should consider instead?
You may take a look at RazorEngine.

asp.net mvc 2 wizard

does anyone have a link to some code for a wizard control in asp.net mvc 2? preferable one without using the session ? i would like to persist all the values in between steps?
Pro ASP.NET MVC 2 Framework 2nd Edition
You can use the simple component MVCWizard.Wizard available on NuGet. The WizardController allows you to create a wizard using partial view. There is also the AutoWizardController that renders the entire wizard in a single view. All these components operate with the session to store the model state. There are also some examples of the use of these classes on NuGet. These components works on MVC3.

Integrate Markitup text editor to ASP.NET MVC project

I'm trying to add markitup text editor with markdownsharp http://markitup.jaysalvat.com/home/ to my MVC ASP project and kindof confused how to go about it. I added a class from markdownsharp and tested the function. that is working fine but confused how to embed the editor in my view.
Using Visual Studia 2010. Please guide regarding the same.
The documentation contains many examples.
#user488652:
As MarkItUp uses jQuery to transform a DIV into a complex editor, I am having similar issue binding the TextArea to the Model in my view.
There is one option I thought of, and it may be a better option, all things considered: make the form an AJAX-style form.
You would use jQuery to handle the Click on the Submit Button. When submitted, your handler would gather the model data and the MarkItUp editor data and fire it off to a controller action in JSON format via $.ajax().
Your controller then would receive the JSON, parse it into your objects, and use the MarkdownSharp library to do whatever logic you need, then send off the objects to your data layer for persistence.
The result may actually be better than the traditional MVC Form binding.
Good solution?
