Question

I have a single page with a Partial control on it called PartialContact

In reusing this control I would like to change the title within the PartialContact control. i.e.

        // change to Title1
        @Html.EditorFor(model => Model.Contact1, "PartialContact")
        // change to Title2
        @Html.EditorFor(model => Model.Contact2, "PartialContact")
        // change to Title3
        @Html.EditorFor(model => Model.Contact3, "PartialContact")

Whats the best way to pass in title text within Razor? TempData?

(I have multiple different controls I need to do this with aswell)

Many thanks

Chris

Answer 1

Use the ViewDataDictionary to pass the value, e.g.

@{
   ViewData["Title"] = "Blah";
   Html.EditorFor(model => Model.Contact1, "PartialControl", ViewData);
}

Then access it in the partial with @ViewData["Title"]
