How to submit for within ejDialog?

Hi,

I have use ejDialog box in ASP.net MVC. I tried to submit form with the ej dialog. But it is unable to submit.

My Snippet :
//This is my partial view
@using (Html.BeginForm("List", "PurchaseRequest", FormMethod.Post))
{
    <div class="row" style="width: 100%; padding-bottom: 5px;">
        <div class="col-md-12" style="padding-right:0px;">
            <span id="message"></span>
        </div>
    </div>
    <div class="row" style="width: 100%; padding-bottom: 5px;">
        <div class="col-md-12" style="padding-right:0px;">
            @Html.EJ().Button("Ok").Type(ButtonType.Submit).Text("Ok").Size(ButtonSize.Normal).ShowRoundedCorner(true).ContentType(ContentType.ImageTextImage).PrefixIcon("e-information")
        </div>
    </div>
}

Upon clicking on Ok Button, I am expecting form to be posted on "PurchaseRequest / List".

Can you guide me on this?

Hi,

I tried your sample project, It is working in your project. It also working in my project. but the height / width is improper. Please see the screenshot. I observe that it is creating two dialog box.



I also observed that, in your project it is creating two dialog box, 1 behind the other. If you move your dialog you will see two dialog box.



Supporting Data :

Parital View :

@Html.EJ().Dialog("MessageBox").Title("Expense Reimbursement System").Width(800).IsResponsive(true).Height(300).ContentTemplate(@<div>
    @using (Html.BeginForm("List", "PurchaseRequest", FormMethod.Post))
    {
        <div class="row" style="width: 100%; padding-bottom: 5px;">
            <div class="col-md-12" style="padding-right:0px;">
                <span id="message"></span>
            </div>
        </div>
        <div class="row" style="width: 100%; padding-bottom: 5px;">
            <div class="col-md-12" style="padding-right:0px;">
                @Html.EJ().Button("Ok").Type(ButtonType.Submit).Text("Ok").Size(ButtonSize.Normal).ShowRoundedCorner(true).ContentType(ContentType.ImageTextImage).PrefixIcon("e-information")
            </div>
        </div>
    }
</div>)

HTML :
    <div class="container">

    </div>

Ajax Call :

 $.ajax({
                        url: "/PurchaseRequest/MessageBox",
                        type: "POST",
                        success: function (e) {
                            debugger;
                            $('.container').append($(e));
                            //$("#message").val(data.Message);
                            ej.widget.init($('.container'));
                        }
                    });

Hi Manish,


Sorry for the inconvenience.


#1) in your project it is creating two dialog box, 1 behind the other. If you move your dialog you will see two dialog box.

The sample we have provided, the control is rendered in the div with class name “container”. Since div with “container” class is already existing in layout page, so that dialog control is created twice. Now we have modified the sample. Please refer to the following link.

http://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/forum/121380/ze/dialogsample-196822790


#2) the height / width is improper.

The height and width of the dialog component is set as per the property values in the sample. Please check with the sample.

To know more about dialog control, Please refer to the following getting started link.

For dialog properties, methods, and events, refer to the below link.

Hi Francis,

Thanks for your support. I know we can set height and width but after setting height and width it was not working, so I rollback your changes and write a different code, which works fine to me.
Now the problem is dialog box does not submit form.
I am rendering message box with this line.


@Html.EJ().Dialog("MessageBox").Title("Expense Reimbursement System").Width(800).ShowOnInit(false).IsResponsive(true).ContentTemplate(@<div>@(Html.Partial("MessageBox"))</div>)

which is I guess is true.

Let me give you supporting data.

My Main .cshtml file:


@model ERSCore.Models.PurchaseRequestModel
@{
    ViewBag.Title = "Create New Purchase Request";
    Layout = "~/Views/Shared/_Layout.cshtml";

        this.EmployeeID = parseInt("0");
        this.Lines = new Array();
    }
    function LineModel() {
        this.Amount = parseFloat("100.00");
        this.FromCountry = "IN";
        this.ToCountry = "";
        this.FromState = "";
        this.ToState = "";

        this.ExpenseText = "";

Hi Manish,


We have analyzed your query. We are unable to reproduce the reported issue “dialog box does not submit the form”. We have prepared the sample based on your code snippet. In the sample, dialogbox submit the form properly and form post back values are obtained in the controller action. Please check with the sample in the below location.

http://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/forum/121380/ze/DialogControl-1462693548


If still persists any problem while submitting the dialog, could you please revert back the sample with your issue? This will help us to provide the better solution.


Regards,

Francis Paul A

Hi Francis Paul A,

Thanks a ton for all your support.
I have resolved this issue, issue was cause because there were two BeginForm after rended html,
1. Is from mail.cshtml
2. Is from PartialView.cshtml.

After removing BeginForm from mail.cshtml file, It is working fine.

You can close this thread.
