从JavaScript调用视图

Question

I've got a JavaScript function defined like this:

function onQuickSearchClick(s) {
    var query = s.GetText();

    $.post('/Search/', { query: query });
}

Now I want to call the View "Search" with the query-text in the SearchController. How can I do that?

When doing this, no view is shown:

SearchController.cs:

    public ActionResult Index(string query)
    {
        // Can't do "return View(query)" here, because this would be interpreted as the view name
        return View();
    }

How can I pass the query parameter to my Views/Search/Index.cshtml?

Answer 1

function onQuickSearchClick(s) {
    var query = s.GetText();

    window.location = '@Url.Action("Index", "Search")?query=' + query; 

    /* OR
    window.location = 'Search/Index?query=' + query; 
    */

    //$.post('/Search/', { query: query });
}

I think I did not understood. You can return string as model like this:

public ActionResult Index(string query)
{
    return View((object)query);
}

Then your MVC will know query is a model not viewName

Answer 2

You'd have to use the three parameter overload for that.

The first parameter is view name, the second is master view name, the last is the model.

return View("Index", "", query);
