Question

Hi guys,
I am creating a razor app and in it I have a main page with a partial page within it, the partial page contains some static data in a table, the problem I’m having is that when the main page is posted back to the server the partial page is refreshed and I lose my static data, how do I prevent my partial page being refreshed when the main page is does a post back ?

Hi, Devbill

In the given solutions Page will be refreshed but will reduce server call and will not call action again and again.

In MVC4 one of best way you can achieve this purpose it by using Caching.

[OutputCache(Duration=30)]
public ActionResult FEATURE_1_URL(){}

so by specifying time it will store your result in caching so when you click next time ActionLink it will give you result from Caching data as per duration time and it will reduce request to the server.

This can be use for fast response.

Thanks.

Hi,

You still may want to dig a bit deeper before applying a solution:
- if really "static" data they are shared by all users, is this what you want ? If  not you could end up with issues when multiple users are using your site.
- if really "static" they are not supposed to be lost so it seems some kind of flaw in your current logic

Before blindly applying some kind of solution, it seems to me you should give this a closer look to make sure your design is correct and a solution won't workaround (maybe just temporarily) your issue rather than  really solving it...

Maybe I need to look at saving the static or temporary data and then reloading when the partial is refreshed.

Presumably, you are populating the Partial in your OnGet method, but not in your OnPost method? If so, make sure that you repopulate it in the OnPost method as well.

This question is about ASP.NET Core. There is no OutputCache attribute in .NET Core.
