How to determine if the view is for GET or POST in ASP.NET MVC?

Question

MVC use action attributes to map the same view for http get or post:

 [HttpGet]   public ActionResult Index()  {     ViewBag.Message = "Message";     return View();  }   [HttpPost]  public ActionResult Index(decimal a, decimal b, string operation)  {      ViewBag.Message = "Calculation Result:";      ViewBag.Result = Calculation.Execute(a, b, operation);      return View();  } 

In the MVC view, how can I determine if the view is for http get or http post?

in Views it is IsPost

@{      var Message="";      if(IsPost)       {             Message ="This is from the postback";       }        else     {             Message="This is without postback";     } } 

PS: For dot net core it is:

Context.Request.Method == "POST" 

Answer 1

System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request.HttpMethod stores current method. Or just Request.HttpMethod inside of view, but if you need to check this, there may be something wrong with your approach.

Think about using Post-Redirect-Get pattern to form reposting.

Answer 2

<% if (System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request.HttpMethod.ToString() == "GET") { %><!-- This is GET --><% }    else if (System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request.HttpMethod.ToString() == "POST")       { %><!--This is POST--><%}       else       { %><!--Something another --><% } %
