    <p>I have the following partial view NewsSummary.ascx used to display a list of news article summaries:</p> <pre><code>&lt;%@ Control Language="C#" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewUserControl&lt;IEnumerable&lt;AkwiMemorial.Models.Article&gt;&gt;" %&gt; &lt;table&gt; &lt;% foreach (var item in Model as IEnumerable&lt;AkwiMemorial.Models.Article&gt;) { %&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;strong&gt; &lt;%= Html.Encode(String.Format("{0:MMMM dd yyyy}", item.DateCreated)) %&gt; &lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;%= Html.Encode(item.Abstract) %&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;a class="link1"&gt; &lt;%= Html.ActionLink("Details", "Details", new { /* id=item.PrimaryKey */ })%&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;% } %&gt; &lt;/table&gt; </code></pre> <p>My HomeController fetches articles to be displayed and creates an entry in the ViewData dictionary of Index.aspx before it is rendered. Partial view is then rendered within Index.aspx using Html.RenderPartial with the lists of news articles passed as its model as follows:</p> <pre><code>&lt;% Html.RenderPartial("NewsSummary", ViewData["news"]); %&gt; </code></pre> <p>Now, I already have a NewsController that fetches a news article by a given Id. With the code as as, clicking on the Details link of each article summary in the NewsSummary partial view invokes an action in my HomeController called Details. How do I tie this action to the Details method in my NewsController. I looked into Html.RenderAction but could not determine how it will work for me in this scenario. </p> <p>Any ideas or am I approaching this the wrong way?</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.
