I am trying to return a HTTP response with 409 status code, content type "application/json" and a json data in the content. The problem is that at the client level, response.content returns html result. Somehow ASP.Net MVC has decided to return a html error message instead of what I intended. I've checked at web.config and 409 is not part of the custom error message. I've checked IIS 7.0 Error Pages section as well for 409 and it is not set there. I wonder where I can find the default configuration that manage asp.net mvc http error code mechanism. I am working based on ASP.Net MVC 2.0 and

I'm using strongly typed views and autofac for Dependency Injection under ASP.NET MVC2 and I'm trying to get a common dynamic header via dependency injection. I.e. i want this to happen without the view having to be away of this content even existing and i was hoping to avoid static discovery of the container and manual resolution, but I can't find a way to easily inject the master or a partial view included in the master via either ctor or property injection. I can't imagine this is an uncommon task, but all I can find in terms of methods is Controller subclassing to stuff data into untyped

I'm trying to update a element on my site from a fancybox. In the fancybox i do a $.post() and get back html data that i want to populate in a div on my page. I open up a iframe window with html and this script below is in that iframe .

I'm using a generated class as a model, and I wish to add DataAnnotation attributes to some of its properties. As it's a generated code, I don't want to add the annotations directly. Is there another way to attach them to a property? I'd considered making the model an interface, and using a partial class to get the generated class to subscribe to it. Is there a less elaborate solution, assuming that would even work? Yes there is. You have to create metadata class that will have the same properties that your original model, and connect it to your model with MetadataType attribute: [MetadataType

public class Foo { public bool Checked {get;set;}} View: <viewdata model="Foo[] fooList" /> <for each="var f in fooList"> ${Html.CheckBoxFor(x=>x[fIndex].Checked)} </for> Will output: <input id="Checked" name="Checked" type="checkbox" value="true" /> <input name="Checked" type="hidden" value="false" /> <input id="Checked" name="Checked" type="checkbox" value="true" /> <input name="Checked" type="hidden" value="false" /> <input id="Checked" name="Checked" type="checkbox" value="true" /> <input name="Checked" type="hidden" value="false" /> Problem is that System.Web.Mvc.ExpressionHelper

I'm looking to make a really simple route in my ASP.NET MVC 2.0 website. I've been googling for help but all the examples I can find are for really complex routing. Basically I want all the pages in my Home Controller to resolve after the domain as opposed to /Home/ For example I want http://www.MyWebsite.com/Home/LandingPage/ To become http://www.MyWebsite.com/LandingPage/ But only for the Home controller, I want the rest of my controllers to function as normal. I thought about creating a controller for each and just using an index, but we need lots of landing pages for our marketing like
