Ajax post data attribute to MVC controller action - ajax

I'm new in Js. This is my code:
<button class="btn btn-primary" data-id = "#item.Id" id="accept">Accept</button>
var tempId;
$('button.accept').click(function () {
tempId = $(this).attr('data-id')
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "/TabRequest/AcceptRequest",
data: { 'id': tempId },
success: function (msg) {
}
});
})
As you can see I'm trying to post "data-id" to Action. When I click to to button, does nothing. Can anybody help me?

You need
$('button#accept')
instead of
$('button.accept')
Since accept is an ID for the button, use # as selector and you can use . for class selector.
you can see reference for jQuery seletors

Rendar partial view in another partial view along with data model using jQuery .Ajax function

I am working on MVC 5 app and I want to render partialView in another partialview with model data using jQuery ajax function. when javaScript function is called, it suppose to send ID of selected element back to controller which is working fine, and in return bring partial view along with model which is not working from following code
<td>
<a href="#" class="SearchUser_Icon Hyperlink_Text" onclick="load_getUserListByGroupID(this)" id=#item.GroupID></a>
</td>
.
JavaScript function
function load_getUserListByGroupID(element)
{
var selectedGroupID = element.id;
alert(selectedGroupID);
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "/UserManagement/SearchUsersByGroupID/",
dataType: "json",
data: { 'GroupID': selectedGroupID },
success: function (viewHTML) {
alert("success");
$("#userContentBlock").html(viewHTML);
},
error: function (errorData) { onError(errorData); }
}).done(function (result) {
alert("done!");
});
}
.
<div id="userContentBlock"></div>
Controller Method
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult SearchUsersByGroupID(string GroupID)
{
int intID = Convert.ToInt32(GroupID);
var UsersListByGroupID = _userServices.GetUsersByGroupID(intID);
return PartialView("GetUsersListByGroup_Partial", UsersListByGroupID );
}
You are returning HTML while expecting JSON in the ajax call. Just remove the dataType: "json" from the settings and everything should work as expected.
jQuery.ajax() dataType:
The type of data that you're expecting back from the server. If none is specified, jQuery will try to infer it based on the MIME type of the response.

How to call ajax only once

I call function from this code :
<div id="header-button-news" class="header-button-info">
<div class="new">2</div>
</div>
My function is
function showNews()
{
//other js which show block
jQuery("#loader").show();
//ajax which load content to block
jQuery.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: link,
dataType: "html",
success: function(data) {
jQuery('#top-info-news').html(data);
},
complete: function(){
jQuery('#loader').hide();
},
});
}
How can I make only once ajax call? so when content is loaded and page was not refresed not to load ajax? I tried to do boolean variables but nothing, I suppouse it is because I call everytime function. Please give me an idea how to do.
thank you
When you want to do something on that event.
Identify when you have already loaded your data.
var loaded = false;
function showNews() {
//other js which show block
jQuery("#loader").show();
if(loaded) return;
//ajax which load content to block
jQuery.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: link,
dataType: "html",
success: function(data) {
jQuery('#top-info-news').html(data);
},
complete: function(){
jQuery('#loader').hide();
},
});
loaded = true;
}
Or use one. when you want to call it once.
jQuery('.showNews').one('click', function() {
// your code
});
"Attach a handler to an event for the elements. The handler is executed at most once per element."
reference
Use the .one() function :
Attach a handler to an event for the elements. The handler is executed at most once per element.
I have added an id attribute to the anchor to allow an easier bind, but you could use $("#header-button-news a").one
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#shownews').one('click', function (evt) {
evt.preventDefault(); // prevent default click action
jQuery("#loader").show();
//ajax which load content to block
jQuery.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: link,
dataType: "html",
success: function (data) {
jQuery('#top-info-news').html(data);
},
complete: function () {
jQuery('#loader').hide();
},
});
});
});
Also used event.preventDefault() to prevent the default action on the anchor from being followed
<div id="header-button-news" class="header-button-info">
<a id="a_news" title="Новости"></a>
<div class="new">2</div>
</div>
In JS:
$(function(){
$('a#a_news').one('click',showNews);
})

ASP.Net MVC 3 action not called from Ajax

I am developing an ASP.Net MVC 3 Web Application. One of my Razor Views contains a few Textboxes and a Drop Down List. When the User selects an option from the Drop Down List, the following JQuery code executes
View
<select id="myDDL">
<option></option>
<option value="1">F1</option>
<option value="2">F2</option>
<option value="3">ST1</option>
<option value="4">ST2</option>
</select>
<div id="someDivToLoadContentTo">
</div>
JQuery
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#myDDL").change(ChangeEventOfDDL);
function ChangeEventOfDDL(){
var dropDownValue = $('#myDDL').val();
//alert(dropDownValue);
$.ajax({ type: "GET",
url: '#Url.Action("SomePartialView","testAjax")',
data: {
id: dropDownValue
},
success: function(data) {
$('#someDivToLoadContentTo').html(data);
}
});
}
});
Controller
public class testAjaxController : Controller
{
public ActionResult SomePartialView(int id)
{
var test = "Hello World";
return View(test);
}
}
However, when I put a breakpoint on the SomePartialView method within the testAjax Controller it never gets hit.
Can anyone perhaps suggest why this is?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
UPDATE
I added the errorData line to my Ajax call like so, but that doesn't seem to give me anything either
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#myDDL").change(ChangeEventOfDDL);
function ChangeEventOfDDL(){
var dropDownValue = $('#myDDL').val();
//alert(dropDownValue);
$.ajax({ type: "GET",
url: '#Url.Action("SomePartialView","testAjax")',
data: {
id: dropDownValue
},
success: function(data) {
$('#someDivToLoadContentTo').html(data);
},
error: function (errorData) { $('#someDivToLoadContentTo').html(errorData); }
});
}
});
If you're going to send a value to the Controller you need to use POST, not GET.
type: "POST"
Folks the problem was with the following line
url: '#Url.Action("SomePartialView","testAjax")'
This was creating an incorrect URL, therefore, the action never got called. I changed to the following line which then corrected the problem
url: '/testAjax/SomePartialView/' + dropDownValue
I think i might have spotted it:
Try changing this:
data: {
id: dropDownValue
},
to this:
data: {
'id': dropDownValue
},
Currently i think it might be confused that id doesnt relate to anything.

Updating a dropdown via knockout and ajax

I am trying to update a dropdown using knockout and data retrieved via an ajax call. The ajax call is triggered by clicking on a refresh link.
The dropdown is successfully populated when the page is first rendered. However, clicking refresh results in clearing the dropdown instead of repopulating with new data.
Html:
<select data-bind="options: pages, optionsText: 'Name', optionsCaption: 'Select a page...'"></select>
<a id="refreshpage">Refresh</a>
Script:
var initialData = "[{"Id":"231271443653720","Name":"Car2"},{"Id":"439319486078105","Name":"Electronics1.2"},{"Id":"115147185289433","Name":"Product"},{"Id":"145033098963549","Name":"Product2"}]";
var viewModel = {
pages : ko.mapping.fromJS(initialData)
};
ko.applyBindings(viewModel);
$('#refreshpage').click(function() {
$.ajax({
url: "#Url.Action("GetPageList", "FbWizard")",
type: "GET",
dataType: "json",
contentType: "application/json charset=utf-8",
processData: false,
success: function(data) {
if (data.Success) {
ko.mapping.updateFromJS(data.Data);
} else {
displayErrors(form, data.Errors);
}
}
});
});
Data from ajax call:
{
"Success": true,
"Data": "[{"Id":"231271443653720","Name":"Car2"},{"Id":"439319486078105","Name":"Electronics1.2"},{"Id":"115147185289433","Name":"Product"},{"Id":"145033098963549","Name":"Product2"}]"
}
What am I doing wrong?
The problem you have is that you are not telling the mapping plugin what to target. How is it suppose to know that the data you are passing is supposed to be mapped to the pages collection.
Here is a simplified version of your code that tells the mapping what target.
BTW The initialData and ajax result were the same so you wouldn't have noticed a change if it had worked.
http://jsfiddle.net/madcapnmckay/gkLgZ/
var initialData = [{"Id":"231271443653720","Name":"Car2"},{"Id":"439319486078105","Name":"Electronics1.2"},{"Id":"115147185289433","Name":"Product"},{"Id":"145033098963549","Name":"Product2"}];
var json = [{"Id":"231271443653720","Name":"Car2"},{"Id":"439319486078105","Name":"Electronics1.2"},{"Id":"115147185289433","Name":"Product"}];
var viewModel = function() {
var self = this;
this.pages = ko.mapping.fromJS(initialData);
this.refresh = function () {
ko.mapping.fromJS(json, self.pages);
};
};
ko.applyBindings(new viewModel());
I removed the jquery click binding. Is there any reason you need to use a jquery click bind instead of a Knockout binding? It's not recommended to mix the two if possible, it dilutes the separation of concerns that KO is so good at enforcing.
Hope this helps.

How to associate an event to Html.ActionLink in MVC3

I have made an Ajax function but i am getting a big prolem in that.
I was displaying the contents on click of the link..
The links are fetched from the database and also the url of the links are fetched from the datbase.
I have wriiten ajax to call the contents dynamically on click of the link
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
$('a').click(function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
var filename = $(this).text();
var Hobbyurl = '#Url.Action("FetchUrlByHobbyName")';
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: Hobbyurl,
data: { data: filename },
success: function (returndata) {
$('iframe').attr('src', returndata);
}
});
});
});
</script>
Now FetchUrlByHobbyName is the function called from the Controller thart returns the url
//Ajax routine to fetch the hobbyinfo by hobbyname
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult FetchUrlByHobbyName(string data)
{
HobbyMasters hobbymaster = new HobbyHomeService().FetchHobbyMasterByHobbyName(data);
string url = hobbymaster.InformationUrl;
if (HttpContext.Request.IsAjaxRequest())
return Json(url);
return View();
}
And in my View i have written the link like this:
#foreach (var item in Model)
{
<li >#Html.ActionLink(item.HobbyName, "Hobbies")
</li>
}
i tried this :
#Html.ActionLink(item.HobbyName, "Hobbies", null, new { id = "alink" })
and then calling Ajax on click of 'alink' but with this my ajax function doesnot get called.
Now the problem is the ajax function is getting called on click of every link on the page..
I want to assign a unique Id to it but i am not understanding how to do that
please Help me...
For that specific link, assign an id. E.g
<a id="someID" href="url">Link</a>
and than bind the click only with that link.
$('#someID').click(function (e)) ....
If I understood you correctly this helps you
The text of the link
<script type="text/javascript">
function myAjaxFunction(){
e.preventDefault();
var filename = $(this).text();
var Hobbyurl = '#Url.Action("FetchUrlByHobbyName")';
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: Hobbyurl,
data: { data: filename },
success: function (returndata) {
$('iframe').attr('src', returndata);
}
});
</script>
Try to give a css class selector to you action link like this...
#Html.ActionLink("some link", "Create", "Some_Controller", new { }, new { #class = "test" })
then User jquery for it..
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
$('.test').click(function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
var filename = $(this).text();
var Hobbyurl = '#Url.Action("FetchUrlByHobbyName")';
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: Hobbyurl,
data: { data: filename },
success: function (returndata) {
$('iframe').attr('src', returndata);
}
});
});
});
</script>
