Recently I was working on a project in which I need to render a partial view from the controller on the button-click event to show the user details.
To render a partial view as a modal popup on button click, you can follow the below steps:
- Create a partial view that will be displayed as a modal popup.
- Create a controller action that returns the partial view.
- In the main view, create a button with an onclick event.
- In the onclick event of the button, make an AJAX call to the controller action to retrieve the partial view.
- Once the AJAX call is successful, create a modal popup using JavaScript or jQuery and display the partial view inside the modal.
Here is an example code snippet that demonstrates how to render a partial view as a modal popup on button click using jQuery:
// HTML Button
<button id="myBtn">Show Modal</button>
// JavaScript code
$('#myBtn').click(function() {
$.ajax({
url: '/MyController/MyAction',
type: 'GET',
success: function(result) {
// Create Modal Popup
var modal = $('<div/>', {
'class': 'modal',
html: result
});
// Display Modal Popup
modal.appendTo('body');
modal.show();
}
});
});
In the above example, the button with id “myBtn” is clicked, and an AJAX call is made to the controller action “MyAction” in the “MyController” controller.
Once the AJAX call is successful, a modal popup is created using the retrieved partial view and displayed on the page.
