Partial view in Asp.Net MVC

This article will explain you about partial view in mvc. In this article I will explain you about partial view and how you use the partial view in asp.net mvc application.

Some of my previous articles are as follows: Ajax Call Using UpdatePanel Display Data On Button Click Without Refresh In Asp.Net, C#, Call C# Code or Function or Method From Javascript In Asp.Net, Get All Checked Checkbox Value Using jQuery in Asp.Net CheckBoxList, Get RadioButton Value Using jQuery In Asp.Net.

Now I will explain you what is partial view.

“In asp.nte mvc partial view acts as container which we can display on conditional bases. So in mvc there are four ways by which we can access the partial view”.

1.       Html.RenderPartial

2.       Html.Partial

3.       Html.RenderAction

4.       Html.Action

Html.RenderAction :  

1.       Return Type of renderpartial is void type.

2.       Simple to use no need to create action method.

3.       Renderpartial view is useful when the display data in partial view is already in the corresponding view model.

@Html.RenderPartial("User_View","Home")

Html.Partial:

1.       Return type of partial is string type

2.       Like render partial method partial view is also useful when the display data in partial view is already in the corresponding view model.

@Html.Partial("User_View")

Html.RenderAction

Render action method is useful when the display data in thee partial view is independent from corresponding view model.

@Html.RenderAction("User_View",)

Html.Action

Action method is useful when the display data in thee partial view is independent from corresponding view model.

@Html.Action("User_View")

Now we will see difference between Renderpartial and partial view.

Render Partial	Partial
Its return type is void	It’s return type is void
We can’t store the output of the render partial view in cache, because the result will write to response stream during execution.	We can store the output of partial in cache.
It is faster then partial	It is less fast than render partial.
