Hi ,

  I am facing issue while redirect to another control when session as expired.  I am using some java script method to call ActionMethod1

1. .ajax({
2.         type: "get",
3.       url: "/SomeController/ActionMethod1",
4.       data: { accountNumber: accountNumber }, dataType: 'json',
5. success: function(response){$(target).html(response);};")
6. error:function(response){$(target).html('An error occured');
7. });

I have the below ActionMethod which is having RedirectToActionMethod.

public ActionResult ActionMethod1()

{

   if(Session==null)

   {

      return RedirectToActionMethod("Signoff","Logout");

}

return PartialView();

}

}

public ActionResult Signoff()

{

   return view();

}

Issue :  when I redirect to Sighoff action method it is returning View but it is binging signoff view at line no: 5. which javascript function is calling initially .

Query: How to stop the initially  javascript call if session is null .

Thanks in advance,

Venkat

Try following code

public ActionResult ActionMethod1()
{
   if(Session==null)
   {
      return null;
   }

   return PartialView();

}

$.ajax({
        type: "get",
      url: "/SomeController/ActionMethod1",
      data: { accountNumber: accountNumber }, dataType: 'json',
success: function(response){
   if (response == null) 
   {
      window.location.href = '@Url.Action("Signoff")';
   } 
   else
   {
      $(target).html(response);
   }  
}, 
error:function(response){$(target).html('An error occured');
}});

Thanks for your reply Gaurav,

  It is working for me still I have some issue while generating url from C# code. My javascript function is prepared from C# code. So  I have given like below

window.location.herf='@Url.Ation(""Index"",""Signoff""); but it is generated in browser like --> http://localhost:9988/@Url.Action(%22Index%%22,%22Signoff%22) ,So I have give like below

window.location.herf='Signoff/Index';

Worked : If my current url is http://localhost:9988/ControlName  then it is generated --> http://localhost:9988/Signoff/Index

Not Worked: If my current url is http://localhost:9988/ControlName/ActionName then it is generated --> http://localhost:9988/ControllerName/Signoff/Index

If you are aware of this issue could you help me.

Thanks again.
