MVC pass model object from controller to view

Question

I am trying to figure out how to pass the model object from controller to view in a following scenario:

<% Html.Action(\"GetRequest\", \"The_Controller\", new         


        

Answer 1

You could have the controller action return the partial view:

<%= Html.Action("GetRequest", "The_Controller", new { requestId = 12 }) %>

And in your controller action:

public ActionResult GetRequest(int requestId)
{
    var request = _repository.GetRequest(requestId);
    return PartialView("Request", request);
}

This way the GetRequest action will pass the request object to the strongly typed Request.ascx partial view and include it in the page at the place you called Html.Action helper.
