partial-views

I'm using Chromatron theme for an admin panel in my application. There is a sidebar gadget that has HTML content and with a little CSS trick it can be shown completely different. <section class="sidebar nested"> <h2>Nested Section</h2> <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, conse ctetur adipiscing elit. Maec enas id augue ac metu aliquam.</p> <p>Sed pharetra placerat est suscipit sagittis. Phasellus <a href="#">aliquam</a> males uada blandit. Donec adipiscing sem erat.</p> </section> I want to have a Partial View that is used like this: @Html.Partial("Path/To/Partial/View"){ <h2>Nested Section</h2> <p

I am attempting to create a strongly typed view with a "MVC View User Control" that is being rendered using Html.RenderPartial(). The top of my ascx file looks like this: <%@ Control Language="C#" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewUserControl<System.Collections.IEnumerable<string>>" %> There is nothing else on this page, currently. When I execute the app and load the page that renders this control, I get the following error: Could not load type 'System.Web.Mvc.ViewUserControl<System.Collections.IEnumerable<string>>'. So, then I simplified it: <%@ Control Language="C#" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc

Just to distinguish between a view used inside a dialog or used in a foreach loop (customer details) ? You don't need an underscore. It's just a convention, and MVC is very keen on using conventions. Marius Schulz Mike Brind has put this nicely in the question Why does Razor _layout.cshtml have a leading underscore in file name? : Since layout pages in Web Pages are not intended to be served directly, they are prefixed with the underscore. And the Web Pages framework has been configured not to allow files with leading underscores in their names from being requested directly. Besides that, I

I'm not sure if I'm doing the best approach here, but I have a block of data that I want to show after a search is done and to not be there at all before. First of all, there is nothing to show, and second the model it references is nil so it throws an exception. I placed this block in a partial template and added it the appropriate spot in my layout. Is there a way to cleanly render the partial conditionally? Is there a better way to approach this problem? Ruby allows you to do nice things like this: <%= render :partial => "foo/bar" if @conditions %> To make this a bit easier to read and

I have two objects that I want to render side by side. There is never a case where I will want to render more, or less than two. My model is setup like so: { obj1: {...}, obj2: {...} } Using mustache templates, I want to render each object using the same partial: <div> <h1>Object 1</h1> {{>objPartial}} </div> <div> <h1>Object 2</h1> {{>objPartial}} </div> However, mustache doesn't seem to support passing a context to the partial. Doing something like {{>objPartial obj1}} seems like it should be supported, but I can't find any documentation on setting a context for a partial. Is this sort of

I'm curious about whether the approach of using multiple strongly typed partials within a form that posts back to the partial containing View is the right MVC approach to doing things. The main View is bound with the following model with several other properties and data annotations omitted for brevity: public class AccountSetup : ViewModelBase { public bool TermsAccepted { get; set; } public UserLogin UserLogin { get; set; } public SecurityQuestions SecurityQuestions { get; set; } } public class UserLogin { public string LoginId { get; set; } public string Password { get; set; } } The markup

I tried to create a VirtualPathProvider and set the view as an embedded resource. class AssemblyResourceVirtualFile : VirtualFile { string path; public AssemblyResourceVirtualFile(string virtualPath) : base(virtualPath) { path = VirtualPathUtility.ToAppRelative(virtualPath); } public override System.IO.Stream Open() { string[] parts = path.Split('/'); string assemblyName = parts[2]; string resourceName = parts[3]; assemblyName = Path.Combine(HttpRuntime.BinDirectory, assemblyName); var assembly = Assembly.LoadFile(assemblyName); if (assembly != null) { return assembly.GetManifestResourceStream
