how to pass the dat from view to controller in mvc3 razor without using Hidden field

The best way to my mind is to use JQuery ajax call to send parameters to controller.
This way you need to bind your control with some extra attributes which are your properties to post on Controller.

First of all in your view instead of hidden field you can add attribute to existing controller like:




Now in JavaScript section put on Document ready portion like:

$(document).ready(function(){
// Write handler to bind function to submit button Click in View

$('.btnSubmit').click(function(){

// First of all Get the Submit button which was clicked
var submit = $(this);

// Now you're able to read all binded attributes to this button one by one through its properties

var property1 = submit.attr('data-YourProperty1');
var property2 = submit.attr('data-YourProperty2');

// and then Parameter array

var parameter = { Property1: property1, Property2: property2};

$.ajax({
url: '@Url.Action("Your Action", "Your Controller")',
data: parameter,
type: 'POST',
async: true,
cache: false
});

});
});



Now in Controller:

public ActionResult YourAction(string Property1, string Property2)
{
/// Your logic
return Json(true, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}

with the help of html.actionlink you have to pass the data from view to controller
Example

@Html.ActionLink("Pass Data","YourActionName","YourControllerName",new {data1=data1,data2=data2,data3=data3},null,null)


and in your actionResult you have to pass these data parameter like


public ActionResult YourActionName(string data1,string data2,string data3)
{
return view();
}


here in action you get your data from view to controller.

Hope this help...

I have faced this same problem while editing one set or record, there only 2 fields are to be updated but for rest of the fields i was faced the same.

My alternate way was - get the ID -> fetch data from table by that ID -> update that 2 fields -> save the object.

Hi RangaBabu,
I too faced the same issue in my project,

I have used ajax call to update the fields on to the database for that I used serializeobject to convert model to object before that I enabled all the controls using javascript and after serializing again I disabled all the controls.
By doing this you will get all 10 values to the object once initialized disable the controls that you do not want to.

Hope this helps you a bit.

If you have any doubt feel free to ask.

Regards,
