asp.net mvc Ajax.BeginForm clone.
- by denis_n
Hello,
I'm using asp.net mvc ajax.
The partial view is using Ajax.BeginForm (just an example):
<div id="divPlaceholder">
<% using (Ajax.BeginForm(new AjaxOptions { UpdateTargetId = "divPlaceholder" })) { %>
... asp.net mvc controls and validation messages
<input type="submit" value="Save" />
<% } %>
</div>
After update, if validation fails, the html is:
<div id="divPlaceholder">
<div id="divPlaceholder">
...form
</div>
</div>
I don't like that the returned html is inserted, instead it should replace original div.
Probably on POST I should not render <div> around form in partial view or render the div without id.
What else can I do in this situation?
I was thinking that maybe I should write a helper, something like Ajax.DivBeginForm, which will render form inside div on GET and hide the div on POST.
Can somebody provide a good advice how to write such helper (Ajax.DivBeginForm)?
I'd like it to work with using keyword:
<% using (Ajax.DivBeginForm(new AjaxOptions { UpdateTargetId = "myId" })) { ... }%>
