Question

I have the following code which renders a control called ExchangeRates.ascx. I want to pass two variables to the control, currencyCode and toCurrencyCode but I only know how to pass one. Can anyone help?

        <% var currencyCode = Html.Encode(Model.Country.CurrencyCode);  %>  

        <% var toCurrencyCode = Html.Encode(Model.Country.toCurrencyCode);  %> 

        <% Html.RenderPartial("~/Views/Shared/ExchangeRates.ascx", currencyCode); %>

Answer 1

You need to define a new model containing the two properties you are interested in:

public class CurrencyCodesViewModel
{
    public string CurrencyCode { get; set; }
    public string ToCurrencyCode { get; set; }
}

and then strongly type your partial view to this model and pass an instance of it:

<% Html.RenderPartial(
    "~/Views/Shared/ExchangeRates.ascx", 
    new CurrencyCodesViewModel { 
        CurrencyCode = currencyCode, 
        ToCurrencyCode = toCurrencyCode
    }
); %>
