All the examples of json I can find online only show how to submit json arrays w/ the jquery command $.ajax(). I'm submitting some data from a custom user control as a json array. I was wondering if it's possible to submit a json array as a regular post request to the server (like a normal form) so the browser renders the page returned.
Controller:
[JsonFilter(Param = "record", JsonDataType = typeof(TitleViewModel))]
public ActionResult SaveTitle(TitleViewModel record)
{
// save the title.
return RedirectToAction("Index", new { titleId = tid });
}
Javascript:
function SaveTitle() {
var titledata = GetData();
$.ajax({
url: "/Listing/SaveTitle",
type: "POST",
data: titledata,
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
});
}
Which is called from a save button. Everything works fine but the browser stays on the page after submitting. I was thinking of returning some kind of custom xml from the server and do javascript redirect but it seems like a very hacky way of doing things. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
