Hi I'm in need of getting the Html Prefix inside the partial view.
I've got a prefix like this attached to where I render my partial view
Html.RenderPartial("Person", Model.Person, new ViewDataDictionary(Html.ViewDataContainer.ViewData)
{
TemplateInfo = new TemplateInfo { HtmlFieldPrefix = "DelegatePerson"}
});
Now when I go in to the Person PartialView I need the prefix in a situation like this.
@Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.CPR, new { @class = "numericTextbox", maxlength = 10, id = "CprField", onkeyup ="CprFieldEdited("[HTMLPrefix]_FieldName");" })
however I don't know how to do so. and I've been searching for a long time now. I hope someone knows how to do this or something similar.
EDIT:
this means I should be able to tell the Javascript function CprFieldEdited that the html prefix it should search for is in this case "DelegatePerson"
Edit 2: It seems it is not clear what I mean so I'll try to provide some more code.
Main Page:
//None relevant Code here
@Scripts.Render("~/bundles/person_search")
//None relevant Code here
<Body>
//None relevant Code here
Html.RenderPartial("Person", Model.Person, new ViewDataDictionary(Html.ViewDataContainer.ViewData)
{
TemplateInfo = new TemplateInfo { HtmlFieldPrefix = "DelegatePerson"}
});
//None relevant Code here
Html.RenderPartial("Person", Model.Person, new ViewDataDictionary(Html.ViewDataContainer.ViewData)
{
TemplateInfo = new TemplateInfo { HtmlFieldPrefix = "EmployerPerson"}
});
//None relevant Code here
</body>
in this scenario I've got two Partials of the same type that are rendered on the same page. However inside them I need to tell the Javascript bundles which one of them is being used now as I cannot use the ID's they are being used for something else my idea what to use the Name attribute with the prefix however as the next code shows I can't give the javascript the prefix it's in to differentiated between the two partials
@Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.CPR, new {id = "CprField", onkeyup ="CprFieldEdited("[FieldNameWithPartialPrefix]");" })
the problem is I cannot give the CprFieldEdited("[FieldNameWithPartialPrefix]"); javascript the "[FieldNameWithPartialPrefix]" which could be either "DelegatePerson_Fieldname" or "EmployerPerson"

You do not need to pass a prefix using the HtmlFieldPrefix. You could just pass it using ViewBag (which works similar to ViewData, but it more recommended).
Just do,
@Html.RenderPartial(
"Person",
Model.Person,
new ViewDataDictionary()
{
{ "Custom Prefix", "your_prefix" }
});
Alternatively, you could define your prefix in the partial,
@{
ViewBag.CustomPrefix = "your_prefix";
}
And to access it either way, just do,
<a onkeyup="@ViewBag.CustomPrefix"> ... </a>
You could use ViewBag to pass anything as it is dynamic. For more info.
