Question

Problem is: I want to run 3 different actions but instead of that i want to fed all data from single action in a bigger model.

I am using:

public class SearchScrapClass
    {
        public WClass WClass { get; set; }
        public SClass SClass { get; set; }
        public YClass YClass { get; set; }
    }

    public class WClass 
    {
        public string title { get; set; }
        public string link { get; set; }
    }
    public class SClass 
    {
        public string title { get; set; }
        public string link { get; set; }
    }
    public class YClass 
    {
        public string title { get; set; }
        public string link { get; set; }
    }

I am using LINQ to add data in these models.

I am using :

      var wikians = from info in document.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//div[@id='span']")
        from link in info.SelectNodes("div//a").Where(x => x.Attributes.Contains("href"))
         select new SearchScrapClass //Main Bigger Class
         {
            WClass.link= link.Attributes["href"].Value, //ERROR: How to add to WClass's url ?
            WClass.title= link.InnerText //ERROR: How to add to WClass's url ?
         }


var wikians = from info in document.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//div[@id='results']")
               from link in info.SelectNodes("p//a").Where(x => x.Attributes.Contains("href"))
               select new SearchScrapClass //Main Bigger Class
                 {
                   YClass.link= link.Attributes["href"].Value, //ERROR: How to add to YClass's url ?
                   YClass.title= link.InnerText //ERROR: How to add to YClass's url ?
                 }

//Also for the 3rd class (model)


    return View(wikians); //and then return bigger class model so that i can access them in view

This is one way i want to add data to link and title of all the classes.

My try is to add data to all 3 classes from different sources and pass the bigger model to view so that i can access all the classes as:

@model SearchScrapClass
@using(Html.BeginForm()) {
    @Html.EditorFor(o => o.WClass.link)
    ...
}

Please suggest a way

Thanks

To Expand on my comment, I would suggest creating a ViewModel folder for organization sake. in this add the view model

public class SearchScrapClassViewModel
{
    SearchScrapClass searchScrap;
    WClass wClass;
    SClass sClass;
    YClass yClass;
}

In your controller then you instantiate the new viewmodel

SearchScrapClassViewModel model = new SearchScrapClassViewModel
{
    ....add in your logic to fill your class objects here


}

return view(model);

then in your view add the using for the viewmodel.

@using SearchScrapClassViewModel
