Problem using with PartialView
Is there a sample for use with a partial view? I can't seem to get it to work round trip. Maybe I am just MVC dense but the upload view never gets the the controller response?! The file IS uploaded however!!! I have tried a number of different approaches: Action, RenderAction, RenderPartial, [ChildActionOnly]...and the result is always the same, the JSON response is just displayed in the browser (see attached), and the view never updates with status. I can recreate the issue using the MvcTestUpload view and controller. If I alter demo.cshtml to be a partial and modify the controller accordingly, it results in the same behavior.
Demo.cshtml
@using MvcFileUploader.HtmlHelper
@using MvcFileUploader.Models
<div class="well">
<legend>Upload Inline</legend>
<p class="help-block">jpg/png size max 5 MB</p>
@(
Html.MvcFileUpload()
.UploadAt(Url.Action("UploadFile"))
.UIStyle(UploadUI.Bootstrap)
.WithFileTypes(@"/(\.|\/)(jpe?g|png)$/i")
.WithMaxFileSize(5000000)
.AddFormField("entityId", "1234")
.RenderInline("_MvcFileupload")
)
</div>
public class MvcUploaderTestController : Controller
{
public ActionResult Demo()
{
return PartialView();
}
public ActionResult UploadFile(int? entityId) // optionally receive values specified with Html helper
{
// here we can send in some extra info to be included with the delete url
var statuses = new List<ViewDataUploadFileResult>();
.....
I have looked around and have not found a solution specific to this package. I could try to hack around the package scripts, but prefer to use this package "as-is". If you have any pointers or suggestions, they are greatly appreciated. Thanks, Eric
