    <p>I am aware of the previous two questions which talk about nesting partial views but the solutions don't work for my design (which might not be the best one but I'm unsure how to adapt it).</p> <p><strong>Background</strong>:</p> <p>I collect questionnaire responses from users and store them on an sql server as xml files.</p> <p>I have a partial view which loads a table with all the Responses of a given user, this partialview populates the table with things like Response date, link to xml response document, questionnaire name, link to xml questionnaire document (the questionnaire info is pulled from a different table) and an Ajax ActionLink which redirects to action which parses the two relevant xml documents to print out Question and Answer list (i.e. visualise the response to be human readable) inside the second partial view.</p> <p>The first partial view contains a div underneath the table which I wish to populate onclick of the Ajax.ActionLink with the second partial view.</p> <p><strong>Problem</strong>: </p> <p>The answers are rendered correctly however the partial view is loaded into a whole new page, without any styling. </p> <p>The other solutions to this nesting problem use RenderPartial() however I use return PartialView()</p> <p><strong>Code</strong>:</p> <p>First Partial View:</p> <pre><code> &lt;table&gt; &lt;thead&gt; &lt;tr&gt;&lt;th&gt;headers with other info&lt;/th&gt; &lt;th&gt;Display(/th&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;/thead&gt; &lt;tbody&gt; &lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;cells with other info&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;@Ajax.ActionLink("View", "DisplayResponse","HealthStatus", new { respID = item.UniqueID,qVersion=item.QuestionnaireVersion, qname = item.QuestionnaireName }, new AjaxOptions { UpdateTargetId = "responseDisp" })&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tbody&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;div id="responseDisp"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;--- **This is the div I wish to populate, does anyone know why it's not working?** </code></pre> <p>DisplayResponse Action (without the logic for parsing the xml documents)</p> <pre><code> public ActionResult DisplayResponse(Guid respID, int qVersion, String qname) { var allResponses = ZData.Responses; var response = (from r in allResponses where r.UniqueID == respID select r ).First(); //geting an XML questionnaire document var questionnaireDetails = ZodiacData.Questionnaires; var questionnaire = (from q in questionnaireDetails where q.Name == qname &amp;&amp; q.Version == qVersion select q ).First(); //creating XMLDocument to read the questionnaire XmlDocument xqdoc = new XmlDocument(); xqdoc.LoadXml(questionnaire.Xml); XmlElement qroot = xqdoc.DocumentElement; ViewBag.qroot = qroot; XmlDocument xrdoc = new XmlDocument(); xrdoc.LoadXml(response.Raw); XmlElement rroot = xrdoc.DocumentElement; ViewBag.rroot = rroot; return PartialView("_PrintedResponse"); } </code></pre> <p>I would be grateful for any help!</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
