  Hide HTML tags in view? Dynamically create list view?

  Feb 22, 2012 10:51 PM|LINK

  I'm still new to the whole MVC concept from .net web forms. I'm in the process of trying to convert some of our mobile sites from web forms to MVC. What I'm trying to grasp and learn is my web form had a grid view that I populated data from an array by looping through it to fill the grid view. Also within the grid view there was a select that allowed he user to select that row and get more information that would populate in the same grid view. What would be to best way to convert this to a MVC? I've been playing with the list view but not sure how to build the list view from the array and then be able to click that row to get more data on the same view or another view.

  Thanks for the direction.  So instead of using a grid it would be best to use a drop down?

  How would I display / hide the dropdown on the screen before it gets populated after a submit?

  Another question, when using the dropdownlist it has to contain data or it will throw a page error.

  In the MVC concept should I place the drop down on another view to be rendered or can I have it on a current view but hide it since it's null?

  I'm not saying you should use the DDL. You need to go through a few tutorials to get a good idea of how to build your application.
