You may need a form with more than one submit button.
Here you have the buttons at the Razor markup
<input type="submit" value="Back" name="actionType" class="btn medium secondary" />
<input type="submit" value="Save draft" name="actionType" class="btn medium secondary" />
<input type="submit" value="Publish" name="actionType" class="btn medium primary" />
You have one action to submit the form to which name is "Edit" for example.
The solution is as you noticed above I've added name="actionType" for all submit buttons.
Now in the Edit action you have to add one extra parameter for actionType as below:
public ActionResult Edit(string actionType)
{
switch(actionType)
{
// add ur cases here
}
}
Hi, thanks for this.
ReplyDeleteI am trying to use this, but am having a problem with some javascript that validates the form before posting.
Do you know a way to get the clicked value or actionType in Javascript before the form is posted?
