Passing parameter to onSuccess callback function

ajax, asp.net-mvc, forms

Solution

Since this parameter is passed to the controller action you could have this controller action return it as part of the JSON response:

public ActionResult DoComment(int id, int parentId)
{
    ... 

    return Json(new 
    {
        Message = "foo",
        ParentId = parentId
    }, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}

so that you could use it in your success callback:

function publishCommentSuccess (json) {
    alert(json.ParentId);

    ...
};

Problem

I have the following form: ``` @using (Ajax.BeginForm("DoComment", "Publication", new { id = Model.Publication.OID, parentId = Model.OID }, new AjaxOptions { OnSuccess = "publishCommentSuccess" })) { //some code } ``` How can I pass `parentId` into `publishCommentSuccess` function? ``` function publishCommentSuccess (json) { if (!json.Result) showAuthBox(); else alert(json.Message); }; ``` Thanks.
