ASP.NET MVC stack overflow exception when calling a partial view from master page

Question

I\'m getting a stack overflow error when I try to call a partial view from the master.

The Partial View:

<%@ Control Language=\"C         


        

Answer 1

I got the exact same thing because I was loading a user control that was essentially a menu bar, but full of Html.Action(), rather than Html.ActionLink(), so it was continuously calling the Action and because it went back to a page that inherited the same masterpage, was calling it again...and again...and again.

So yeah my problem was I was using the wrong keyword.
