Failed to Get Full URL in asp.net mvc3 it ignore # - asp.net-mvc-3

how can i get folowing url
http://localhost:4847/Category/#pageindex=1
i failed to get full url using Request.Url.OriginalString
its only give me blocalhost:4847/Category
ignore other paramters. basically i want to get #pageindex=1 from this url
there is any other way to get (#pageindex=1)

Why are you using # ? Is it hardcoded ? Why not using Html helper methods to generate the Link urls ?
#Html.ActionLink("Category", "Index", new { pageIndex= "1"})
your query string should be like
http://localhost:4847/Category?pageindex=1
Your request for this page will be handled by an Action. So i guess, you should be able to get this as the parameter of that action method.
public ActionResult Index(string pageIndex)
{
//do whatver with pageIndex variable value here
}

How to redirect to view from shared folder

HttpContext.Response.Redirect("~/Shared/views/Error.cshtml", true);
This is not working for me
And how to exclude the certain controllers and actions
As you can see in documentation, method which you are trying to use require to arguments
public void Redirect(string url, bool endResponse)
and first argument is an url of page where user should be redirected, while you are passing view file path. In asp. mvc path to *cshtml file is not equal to url.
I suggest you to use RedirectToRoute method instead
RedirectToRoute(new RouteValueDictionary
{
controller = "Error",
action = "Index"
})
where your desired view is returned by ErrorController.Index() action.

handle direct url with history api in asp.mvc

I have my site like http://mysite.com/ and on the index page i have search box and for the result i am using jqgrid. When user click row in the jqgrid row I am taking data from cells and do ajax call to server and fetch json data and once data arrived I hide the search box and jqgrid and show another div which is I kept for result. In short, user will be on the same page just div's hide/show.
Now I have seen history api and used pushState and popstate so my url becomes in the addressbar like http://mysite.com/controller/action/para1/para2 (here para1 and para2 are the parameters i am passing to action). Everything is ok so far.
Now the problem is if I copy this URL "http://mysite.com/controller/action/para1/para2" and if I open this with let's say different browser and hit enter it display just json data. So, I am confused that how to handle when user directly use that url in controller.
I was thinking to check in the controller action if the request is AJAX then return json data otherwise full page, is that right approach? OR something on the client side we have so that it load the same way as earlier.
Thanks
if I copy this URL "http://mysite.com/controller/action/para1/para2" and if I open this with let's say different browser and hit enter it display just json data.
it only display json data because its ajax call only so how to deal with that so that it also display the same page even user directly access the url.
I think what you're looking for is Request.IsAjaxRequest():
public class FooController : Controller {
public ActionResult GetFoo(int id) {
var model = _fooService.Get(id);
if (Request.IsAjaxRequest())
return PartialView("_Foo", model);
return View("Foo", model);
}
}
Note: It's recommended to use WebAPI controllers to handle only json data. So if the user got there by typing the url the mvc controller will handle it and if you need to get the json data for that view you could call the webapi controller.
Use a separate controller or action method for AJAX and for Views. The View controller should match the URL. The Ajax controller should be the less "pretty" URL since it's behind the scenes.
You need to set up a routing definition in global.asax (MVC 3) or App_Start/RouteConfig.cs (MVC 4) to handle the parameters if you haven't already done that.
routes.MapRoute(
"MyRoute",
"MyUrlController/{action}/{para1}/{para2}",
new
{
action = "Index",
para1 = UrlParameter.Optional,
para2 = UrlParameter.Optional
}
);
Then in the View controller:
public ActionResult Index(string para1 = "Default Value", string para2 = "Default Value")
{
// ...Handle parameters...
return View("_MyView", viewModel);
}
Returning a View object type is the key. The History API URL doesn't get it's data from the same AJAX source controller which returns a PartialViewResult.

MVC3 MapRoute to convert aspx query params into the route

I'm working on a project to rewrite an aspx site as MVC3. I want to make the old URLs work on the new site. I have named my controllers and actions such that the URLs actually contain enough info in the query string to route correctly but I'm having trouble getting the routing to work since it doesn't like the ? in the URL.
Basically I have old URLs like this:
www.example.com/Something/SomethingElse/MyPage.aspx?Section=DetailSection&TaskId=abcdef
I tried to create a route using:
routes.MapRoute(
"OldSite",
"Something/SomethingElse/MyPage.aspx?Section={action}Section&Id={id}",
new { controller = "Task", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
I want it to route to the correct new URL which is:
www.example.com/Task/Detail/abcdef
I know that all traffic to the MyPage.aspx page should go to my new Task controller and the beginning of the Section parameter always matches one of a few corresponding actions on that controller.
Unfortunately I have found that I get an error that a route can't contain a question marks. How should I handle this? Would it be better to use URL rewriting? Because this is a private site I'm not concerned with returning permanent redirects or anything - no search engine will have links to the site anyway. I just want to make sure that customers that have a URL in an old email will get to the right page in the new site.
In this one case I think the simplest way would be to have your old page mapped to a route:
routes.MapRoute(
"MyPage",
"Something/SomethingElse/MyPage.aspx",
new { controller = "Task", action = "MyPageHandler" }
);
And have this route mapped to an action method in TaskController:
public ActionResult MyPageHandler(string section, string taskId)
{
if (section.Contains("Detail"))
{
// execute section
}
}
This way you're treating your old site's query string for what it is: a query string. Passing those parameters straight into an action method is the most MVC-y way to interpret your old site.

route that will handle URL's in the URL for MVC 3

I am trying to create a custom route that can handle something like:
domain.com/link/http://www.someotherdomain.com/blablah.html?qstring=54
Where the passed param is a link...
I cannot get this to work with URL encode and decode.. always returns a bad request?
Pass the link as id.
Something like...
controller:
public SomeAction(string url)
{
...
}
View:
#Html.ActionLink("link name", "Action", new {id = "someurl.com"}
or modify the global.asax's routes.MapRoute and add another parameter.

ASP.Net Mvc 3 Url.Action method uses parameter values from previous request

When Urls are autogenerated using the Url.Action helper, if a page contains a line similar to
#Url.Action("Edit","Student")
is expected to generate a url like domain/student/edit and its working as expected.
But if the requested url contains some parameters, like domain/student/edit/210, the above code uses these parameters from the previous request and generates something similar even though I've not provided any such parameter to the Action method.
In short, if the requested url contains any parameters, any auto generated links of the page (served for that request) will include those parameters as well no matter if I specify them or not in the Url.Action method.
What's going wrong?
Use Darin's answer from this similar question.
#Url.Action("Edit","Student", new { ID = "" })
Weird, can't seem to reproduce the problem:
public class HomeController : Controller
{
public ActionResult Index(string id)
{
return View();
}
public ActionResult About(string id)
{
return View();
}
}
and inside Index.cshtml:
#Url.Action("About", "Home")
Now when I request /home/index/123 the url helper generates /home/about as expected. No ghost parameters. So how does your scenario differs?
UPDATE:
Now that you have clarified your scenario it seems that you have the following:
public class HomeController : Controller
{
public ActionResult Index(string id)
{
return View();
}
}
and inside Index.cshtml you are trying to use:
#Url.Action("Index", "Home")
If you request /home/index/123 this generates /home/index/123 instead of the expected /home/index (or simply / taken into account default values).
This behavior is by design. If you want to change it you will have to write your own helper which ignores the current route data. Here's how it might look:
#UrlHelper.GenerateUrl(
"Default",
"index",
"home",
null,
Url.RouteCollection,
// That's the important part and it is where we kill the current RouteData
new RequestContext(Html.ViewContext.HttpContext, new RouteData()),
false
)
This will generate the proper url you were expecting. Of course this is ugly. I would recommend you encapsulating it into a reusable helper.
Use ActionLink overload that uses parameters and supply null
You could register custom route for this action for example:
routes.MapRoute("Domain_EditStudentDefault",
"student/edit",
new {
controller = MVC.Student.Name,
action = MVC.Student.ActionNames.Edit,
ID = UrlParameter.Optional
},
new object(),
new[] { "MySolution.Web.Controllers" }
);
you then could use url.RouteUrl("Domain_EditStudentDefault") url RouteUrl helper override with only routeName parameter which generates url without parameters.
