Question

I am a newbie to asp.net mvc 3. How can you render a view within a div by calling an action:

html:

<div id="dialog-modal" title="Basic modal dialog">
 @Html.RenderAction("Popup","Home");
</div>

c#:

public  ActionResult Popup()
    {
       return PartialView();
    }

I am getting an error:

The best overloaded method match for 'System.Web.WebPages.WebPageExecutingBase.Write(System.Web.WebPages.HelperResult)' has some invalid arguments

Try wrapping your HtmlHelper in a code block:

@{ Html.RenderAction("Popup", "Home"); }
