    <p>I am new to MVC and working on an e-commerce application for my aunt's business. I have a Product List page with a partial view to display a menu to search by category. It all worked just fine with Html.ActionLink helpers, but when I switched to AJAX, it updates the products but inserts the entire List view into the div that I want updated(header and everything included). I'm assuming it has something to do with the UpdateTargetId I defined, or perhaps the layout(I'm no css whiz). So here goes:</p> <p>ProductController:</p> <pre><code>public ViewResult List(string category, int page = 1) { JProductListViewModel model = new JProductListViewModel { JProducts = repository.JProducts .Where(p =&gt; category == null || p.Category == category) .OrderBy(p =&gt; p.ProductID).Skip((page - 1) * PageSize).Take(PageSize), PagingInfo = new PagingInfo { CurrentPage = page, ItemsPerPage = PageSize, TotalItems = category == null ? repository.JProducts.Count() : repository.JProducts.Where(x =&gt; x.Category == category).Count() }, CurrentCategory = category }; return View(model); } </code></pre> <p>Menu Partial:</p> <pre><code>@foreach (var link in Model) { &lt;div class="catmenuitem"&gt; @if (link != null) { @Ajax.RouteLink(link, "", new { controller = "Product", action = "List", category = link, page = 1 }, new AjaxOptions { HttpMethod = "POST", InsertionMode = InsertionMode.Replace, UpdateTargetId = "List", LoadingElementId = "loading", LoadingElementDuration = 1000 }, new { @class = link == ViewBag.SelectedCategory ? "selected" : null }) } &lt;/div&gt; } </code></pre> <p>List View:</p> <pre><code>&lt;div id="List"&gt; @foreach (var p in Model.JProducts) { Html.RenderPartial("ProductSummary", p); } &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p>The result I am getting is the entire List.cshtml view being duplicated and inserted into the "List" div. I have a feeling it will be some sort of silly mistake, but I can't seem to find it.</p> <p>Thanks, Kwinsor5</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.
