I have a 2-level menu item: I have a list of department and each department has a list of stores. I have a Menu, PartialView which iterates through the Model (departments) and builds the menu: @model IEnumerable<Department> <ul> @foreach (var department in Model) { <li> <a href="#">@Model.DepartmentName</a> <ul> @foreach (var store in department.Stores) { <li><a href="some-url">@store.StoreName</a></li> } </ul> </li> } </ul> And this is how I call the Menu PartialView in my _layout.cshtml : @Html.Partial("Shared/_Menu", MyApplicationCache.departments) As you can see I am passing the same model

I have to create a bunch of static html files as console / winform job. The current solution uses a string builder. Having used ASP.NET-MVC with strongly typed view pages (System.Web.Mvc.ViewPage) I was wondering if it is possible to leverage these view pages and have them output to a stream or file without building an ASP.NET solution. Essentially I'd like to create the viewpage, pass in the strongly typed object, and render the result. I'm also open to other view engines. If this ends up requiring bringing over the whole kitchen sink, then I can just do a string builder style. Thanks. What

I have a Page.cshtml similar to the following (that does not work): @{ Layout = "../Shared/Layouts/_Layout.cshtml"; var mycollection = (ViewBag.TheCollection as IQueryable<MyCollectionType>); } <h2>@ViewBag.Title</h2> content here @if (mycollection != null && mycollection.Count() > 0) { @section ContentRight { <h2> Stuff </h2> <ul class="stuff"> @foreach (MyCollectionType item in mycollection ) { <li class="stuff-item">@item.Name</li> } </ul> } } As I said, this does not work. I want to not define the section if there's nothing in the collection. Is there any way to have something like this

Razor is prettier (and is new therefore cool). Webforms is something I am already familiar with. Naturally I would unquestionably go for the new thing to learn - Razor. But I have heard of two disadvantages that worry me: can't easily reuse existing web forms controls - in the rare instance I may need to drag something across... I'll reiterate - 'RARE' I hear it is less efficient at rendering (takes longer than web forms) So what are the advantages of Razor over Webforms view engines when using ASP.NET MVC 3? marcind This has already been addressed by the following question: Does Razor syntax

I am looking for the simplest solution for the custom viewengine for asp.net mvc. So I can over-ride the path to look for the views. Actually, I am trying to build a theme system in my solution. I looked over web but found solution which is hard to learn and implement. Thanks This is what I use. It looks for views in a theme folder. Set the theme name, in the first line of the constructor. It also supports mobile views, but you'll need something like 51 Degrees Mobi to provide you with the mobile browser details. using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Web; using System

I created a simple ASP.NET MVC version 1.0 application. I have a ProductController which has one action Index. In the view, I created a corresponding Index.aspx under Product subfolder. Then I referenced the Spark dll and created Index.spark under the same Product view folder. The Application_Start looks like protected void Application_Start() { RegisterRoutes(RouteTable.Routes); ViewEngines.Engines.Clear(); ViewEngines.Engines.Add(new Spark.Web.Mvc.SparkViewFactory()); ViewEngines.Engines.Add(new WebFormViewEngine()); } My expectation is that since the Spark engine registers before default

We have an ASP.NET MVC 4 application with around 3000 views in it. We've decided to split this set of views into separated DLLs and compile it with RazorGenerator. We keep only main _Layout.cshtml and related files in the main MVC project. We cannot load partial views from DLL together with master view in main MVC project. Detailed description is below. What is already done: The views compile successfully into DLLs (I've confirmed that they are in the binary) The PrecompiledMvcEngine object is created and registered for each DLL containing views using the code below in Application_Start in
