how to check which event caused the post back in asp.net mvc application

I have one View and one Controller in my ASP.net MVC Application.

I have one "Submit" button & one "Cancel" button in my view.

When开发者_JAVA百科 I click any of the botton below action will be triggered.

AcceptVerbs(HttpVerbs.Post)

public ActionResult Result()

{

}

Now the Question is how i will know in my public ActionResult Result() , whether post back caused because of "Submit" or "Cancel" ??

you can try like

function OnBeginRequest(sender, args) {
        var postBackElement = args.get_postBackElement();
if ((postBackElement.id == '<%= btnSave.ClientID %>')
  {

  }
}

You could solve the problem with the following steps:

i. Place a hidden field called 'cancel' in the form on your view. Give it a default value of false.

ii. In the onclick event for your cancel button, add the following script:

document.getElementById('cancel').value = true; document.getElementById('myForm').submit();

Change 'myForm' to be the name of your form.

iii. Change the method signature for Result() to the following:

public ActionResult Result(bool cancel)

Through model binding, the value of your hidden field 'cancel' will be accessible in the signature of your action method.

Thanks for the answers. One more solution I got is ,

public ActionResult Result()
    {
        if (Request.Params.ToString().IndexOf("btnSubmit") > 0)
            //
        else
            //
    }

I would suggest that your "cancel" button should not submit the form. There are several ways to handle this, but the simplest would be to have a javascript onclick event on the button that navigates back to the previous page. (history.go(-1)) If that doesn't meet your needs, you can also specify a specific route to navigate to. Most complex would be to intercept the click on the client side and decide which route to hit, but I typically only do that if I want to have multiple submit buttons on the form that will hit different actions, and that's a fairly rare situation.
