How to use Asp.net mvc JavaScriptResult practically

I am usually very excited about knowing something that can make my life easy and JavaScriptResult is one of that thing. It is used to execute JavaScript code immediately on the client sent from the server. Here is the small code snippet for its implementation.

View: 
<%: Ajax.ActionLink("display", "Display", new AjaxOptions()) %>
<%: Html.TextBox("name","mazhar") %>
<%: Ajax.ActionLink("checks", "Checks", new AjaxOptions()) %> 

Controller:
  public ActionResult Display()
  {        
    var  script = "$('#message').append('Display');";
    return JavaScript(script);
  }

  public ActionResult Checks()
  {        
    string script = "var textboxvalue=$('#name').val();";
    script += "$('#message').append(textboxvalue);";
    return JavaScript(script);
  } 

Output:

1) Clicking on the first link will display Display in the message div.
2) Clicking on the second link will display mazhar in the message div.

It's usage in the light of Asp.net Mvc:

Asp.net mvc is the design pattern which is all about separation of concern . It has the model, view and controller. Each doing it part and not intermingling with each other directly. My Advice would be to not use it but this thing is present if it become necessary.

Asp.net mvc razor render partial view using ajax helper

I want to demonstrate here yet another way by which partial view can be rendered without page refresh. Here is the implementation. Step 1: I will again be using DisplayData class in my demo. Here is it. public class DisplayData { public int ID { get; set; } public DisplayData(int ID) { this.ID = ID; } } Step 2: Create a PartialDemo page @model IEnumerable<MvcApplication5.Models.DisplayData> @{ ViewBag.Title = "PartialDemo"; } @Ajax.ActionLink("Click 1", "PartialDemo", "PartialDemo", new {Data= "1" }, new AjaxOptions { UpdateTargetId = "rsvpmsg" }) @Ajax.ActionLink("Click 2", "PartialDemo", "PartialDemo", new {Data= "2" }, new AjaxOptions { UpdateTargetId = "rsvpmsg" }) <div id="rsvpms...

Asp.net mvc razor render partial view using jquery Ajax

I will going to demonstrate how we can render PartialViews using Jquery Ajax. I will be clicking an a href link ,then I will be calling the controller through jquery Ajax which will fill the partialview for a really nice user experience. Step 1: First of all we will be creating an DisplayData class for the use for this example in the model. public class DisplayData { public int ID { get; set; } public DisplayData(int ID) { this.ID = ID; } } Step 2: We will create a Clicks page and write the following code on it.

Dotnetnuke Inter-module communication (IMC) simplified on version 06.00.02 with c#

Few days ago I developed a module in which I used IMC which really interested me so I decided to write about it. I will try to explain in this post everything that is necessary to make IMC work in the modules. What is Inter Module Communication? As the name implies if you want to communicate or in other words send data from one module to another IMC is one way of doing it. I will be using module A and module B as the names in my post. An Observation: One thing I observed while playing around with it that if module A is on page 1 and module B is on page 2 then the data doesn't get passed. If both the modules are on the same page then only the data get passed. Example: The basic exercise that I will be performing is to take input from the textbox in Module A and display it in label in Module B. 1) You will be using IModuleCommunicator and IModuleListener interfaces to make this communication works. You will be implementing IModuleCommunicator in the class in the modul...
