Firing the Create Action manually when item is selected

[Ryan Lege]

Basically, I have a bulleted list inside the listview, and when a user selects and item, I want it to automatically fire the create action method. And when the user deselects I want it to fire the Destroy action method

Hi Benjamin,

 

Basically you should use the change event of the ListView to perform actions with the last and currently selected items when the event is fired. 

e.g.:

var lastSelectedItem;

function onChange(arg) {
    var currentSelectedItem;
    currentSelectedItem = this;

    if (!lastSelectedItem) {
        //First item selected
        lastSelectedItem = currentSelectedItem;
    }
    else {
        //lastItemSelected is unselected now
        //Make ajax call to the Destroy action
        //$.ajax({
        //    url: 'ajax/Destroy',
        //    success: function (data) {
        //        alert('Load was performed.');
        //    }
        //});
    }

    //Make ajax call to the Create action
    //$.ajax({
    //    url: 'ajax/Create',
    //    success: function (data) {
    //        alert('Load was performed.');
    //    }
    //});

    //save the currently selected item
    lastSelectedItem = currentSelectedItem;
}
