Hi Experts,
I am working on a website in asp.net mvc. I have to show a view where user put some search values like tags and titles to search. I want to use the same Index method for that. I have make my form to use formMethod.Get to send the parameters as querystring.
so here is the method
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult Index(string title, string tags, int? page)
{
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(title)
return View(null);
var list = GetSomeData();
return View(list);
}
here is my view
<div id="searchBox">
<% using (Html.BeginForm(null, null, FormMethod.Get))
{ %>
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<input type="hidden" id="isPosted" name="isPosted" value="1" />
I am looking for
<%=Html.TextBox("Title")%>
Tags:
<%=Html.TextBox("Tags")%>
<input id="search" type="submit" value="Search" />
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<% } %>
So when the user first visit the page, he will see only two text boxs and a button. but when he types something in the title and tags and click the search button i will load the view with some data.
Now the problem is when i type something in title and tags box and click search, they are received in the method, but are not visible in the url. Is there anything i m doing wrong.
help will be appreciated.
