    <p>I'm new to ASP.NET MVC; something I'm having trouble with is getting data from a jqueryUI dialog form and passing it to the controller so that I can, for instance, save form input to a database. </p> <p>The method in my controller for handling this doesn't get called for some reason, despite the fact that it seems to be referenced correctly in the jquery code. Here is what I have in the view (I've obviously omitted most of the code, just putting the relevant parts here for readability):</p> <pre><code>&lt;a href="#" id="dialog_link"&gt;Open Dialog Box&lt;/a&gt; &lt;div id="dialog" title="MakeSomeSampleNote"&gt; &lt;form id="testform" method="post"&gt; &lt;input id="tbx_casenote" name="tbx_casenote" type="text" style="height:50px; width:200px;" /&gt; &lt;/form&gt; &lt;/div&gt; $("#dialog").dialog({ autoOpen: false, resizable: true, height: 210, width: 510, modal: true, buttons: { "Ok": function () { var noteval = $("#tbx-casenote").val(); $.ajax({ type: "POST", url: "@Url.Action("NoteController/SaveNote")", data: { content: tbx_casenote_val }, cache: false, dataType: "json", success: function (data) { $("#dialog").dialog("close"); } }); }, "Cancel": function () { $(this).dialog("close"); }} }); $('dialog_link').click(function () { $('#dialog').dialog('open'); return false; }); </code></pre> <p>Here is the method I'm using in the controller; when debugging, this method never gets hit after I test the dialog form and click the "Ok" button:</p> <pre><code> [HttpPost] public JsonResult SaveNote(string NoteText) { //code to save this note to database - not relevant to question return Json(new { success = true }); } </code></pre> <p>Thanks.</p>

    1. COSince you have set `autoOpen: false` where are you opening/showing the dialog? Also you seem to be using some `tbx_casenote` javascript variable in your AJAX call which is not clear where is defined.

    3. COOk, I made some changes to the code and have updated my post to reflect that. No longer getting the 'out of stack space' error. Now it's just that nothing seems to be happening; the SaveNote method in the controller is never called from jquery, and that's where it's at right now.

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).
