Im using the following code:
public string RenderPartialToString(ControllerContext context, string partialViewName, ViewDataDictionary viewData, TempDataDictionary tempData)
{
ViewEngineResult result = ViewEngines.Engines.FindPartialView(context, partialViewName);
if (result.View != null)
{
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
using (StringWriter sw = new StringWriter(sb))
{
using (HtmlTextWriter output = new HtmlTextWriter(sw))
{
ViewContext viewContext = new ViewContext(context, result.View, viewData, tempData, output);
result.View.Render(viewContext, output);
}
}
return sb.ToString();
}
return String.Empty;
}
To return a partial view and a form through JSON. It works as it should, but as soon as I get modelstate errors my ValidationSummary does not show. The JSON only return the default form but it does not highlight the validation errors or show the validation summary.
Am I missing something?
This is how I call the RenderPartialToString:
string partialView = RenderPartialToString(this.ControllerContext, "~/Areas/User/Views/Account/ChangeAccountDetails.ascx", new ViewDataDictionary(avd), new TempDataDictionary());
