    <p>In a non-ajax call, the ordering of divs inside other divs gets messed up and the page renders wrong. When the same call is done via Ajax, the page renders perfectly.</p> <p>So I have this search form on my master page:</p> <pre><code> &lt;form action="&lt;%=Url.Action("Search") %&gt;" method="post" id="search1" class="search-form"&gt; Search: &lt;%=Html.TextBox("SearchBox1", null)%&gt; &lt;input type="submit" value="Go" /&gt; &lt;/form&gt; ..... &lt;div id="search-results"&gt; &lt;asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="MainContent" runat="server" /&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p>I also have this javascript to submit the search form using Ajax:</p> <pre><code>$('.search-form').ajaxSubmit(GetSearchAjaxFormOptions()); </code></pre> <p>and</p> <pre><code>function GetSearchAjaxFormOptions() { return { target: '#search-results', data: GetSearchData(), success: RunAfterAjaxSubmit() }; } </code></pre> <p>when the form is sumbitted via Ajax, everything renders beautifully. When I turn Ajax off and submit the form, The rendered html is messed up. Like there was a misplaced element or something in there. The divs on the page do not end up inside the right divs. I looked at and diffed and ... all sorts of thing to find the difference, and I cant see any thing that would cause this.</p> <p>My controller method is:</p> <pre><code>public ActionResult Search() { if (Request.IsAjaxRequest()) { return View("SearchResultsPartial", sm); } else { return View("Index", sm); } </code></pre> <p>}</p> <p>My Index.aspx is:</p> <pre><code>&lt;%@ Page Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Views/Shared/Site.Master" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewPage" %&gt; &lt;asp:Content ID="indexTitle" ContentPlaceHolderID="TitleContent" runat="server"&gt; Home Page &lt;/asp:Content&gt; &lt;asp:Content ID="indexContent" ContentPlaceHolderID="MainContent" runat="server"&gt; Html.RenderPartial("SearchResultsPartial"); &lt;/asp:Content&gt; </code></pre> <p>and my SearchResultsPartial.ascx is: </p> <pre><code>&lt;%@ Control Language="C#" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewUserControl&lt;MyWebSite.Models.SearchModel&gt;" %&gt; &lt;% int count = Model.searchResults.Count(); for (int i = 0; i &lt; count; i++) { Response.Write(Model.searchResults.ElementAt(i)); } %&gt; </code></pre> <p>My model has:</p> <pre><code>public IEnumerable&lt;String&gt; searchResults; </code></pre> <p>So an important thing is that the search engine returns to the model a collection of strings. Each string is an html of a search result. This was generated by using linq to xml and is really the result of the XElement.ToString() call.</p> <p>And my master page has:</p> <pre><code>&lt;div id="search-results" class="yui-u"&gt; &lt;asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="MainContent" runat="server" /&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p>Any help in finding what to do to fix this is most appreciated. I have ran out of things to look at myself.</p> <p>Many thanks!</p>

    1. CO`Response.Write`? *Srsly?* And you should return `PartialView()` to AJAX requests. :) Go through one of the excellent ASP.NET MVC tutorials on the official web site, it will really help you.

    2. CO@bzlm, the result of Model.searchResults.ElementAt(i) is a string that is held in the search index. It is a piece of xhtml that has been created using linq to xml and at the end turned into a string by XElement.ToString. If I want to generate this complex xhtml from data on the fly, the search results will be too slow for users. Now I stick this xhtml inside my document by using Response.Write. How do you recommend I do it instead?

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).
