Question

have a simple search form with a textbox. And upon submitting the form I send the contents of the textbox to a stored procedure which returns to me the results. I want the results to be displayed on the same page the form was, except just below it.

Right now I’m doing the following but it’s not working out exactly the way I want:

You can use Ajax to solve the problem.

<div>
`@using (Ajax.BeginForm("action", "controller", new AjaxOptions
    {
        UpdateTargetId = "results",
        HttpMethod = "GET",
    }))
    {
        @Html.TextBox()
        <input type="submit" value="Search" />
    }`
<div id="results"></div>
</div>
