build partial view within treelist template

[elke]

Hi,

I'm trying to display a partial view in a treelist column 

This is the colum definition:

columns.Add().Field(e => e.PageID)
                .TemplateId("translation-template")
                .HtmlAttributes(new { @class = "center col-lg-2" });

 

In this codesnippit, the PageID in the first div is displayed correctly for each row in my treelist.

Now I want to use the #: PageID # to be pass into the Html.RenderAction as a parameter (instead of 4)

<script id="translation-template" type="text/x-kendo-template">
        <div>#: PageID #</div>
        <div>
            @{Html.RenderAction("_TranslationTemplate",
                         "Pages",
                          new { PageID = 4 });
                }
        </div>
    </script>

 

Thank you!

Hello,

Have you tried to use the template hash syntax in the Html.RenderAction method? For example the code to look like: 

<script id="translation-template" type="text/x-kendo-template">
        <div>#: PageID #</div>
        <div>
            @{Html.RenderAction("_TranslationTemplate",
                         "Pages",
                          new { PageID = #= PageID# });
                }
        </div>
    </script>

You can also refer to the How to Use Action Links? article for more information about different templates based on whether it is server bound or ajax bound TreeList.

Hello ,

I had tried that hash before but I'm getting syntax errors (see screenshot)

Kind regards

Hello Elke,

For some reason when I pasted the code in the editor the quotes around the template expression disappeared. 

PageID = "#= PageID#"

Most probably this should  clean the errors in the visual studio, but it will not send the expected value (PageID to the action method). It is the same reason that I already explained in your other thread. The code will be executed on the server and this is client-side expression. My suggestion here is to include the JavaScript logic or template evaluation logic in the template directly. Please take a look at my reply in the other thread and let us know if you have any questions.
