[SOLVED] Entering the controller again from the page via Ajax

Entering the controller again from the page via Ajax

I have started ASP.NET MVC entering my controller and sending out the view. I am also writing a log.

The page has jQuery and JavaScript so I need to be able to enter into the controller again, preferably not a postback but via Ajax or similar. Is this possible, or do I call an action on a controller from JavaScript?

Solution

Well if you want to do ajax against a controller you can do an .ajax with jQuery like this:

$.ajax({
                 type: "GET",//type of verb to use POST/GET
                 data: ({ Data:data }),//Send some data to the controller
                 url: '<% = Url.Action("MEthod","Controller")%>',//URL of the resource
                 dataType: "text/html", //Define the type of spectated results(JSON,Html,Xml)
                 timeout: 8000, //How much time to wait for the asynchronous call to complete
                 error: function() {
                     alert('ERROR');
                 }, //end error
                 success: function(html) {
                 //Here do something with the result hold in the html variable  
                 } //end succes
             });   //end ajax
