Search Screen Page:

<div style="float: left; margin-left: 325px;">

<input type="text" id="txtSearch" name="search" style="height: 25px;width: 450px;border: 1px solid #4194FF;">

</div>

<div class="style_search">

<input type="submit" id="btnsearch" name="btnsearch" value="search" />

</div>

</form>

 

 Search Result Page:

 

@model Tuple<string>

@{

ViewBag.Title = "Get User";

}

<h2>Search Result</h2>

<table>

<tr>

<td>

Keyword :

@*textbox*@ <input type="text" id="txtSearch" value="@Model.Item1" name="txtsearch" />

@*search*@ <input type="button" value="Search" id="btnSearch" />

@*AllSearch*@<input type="button" value="Get All User" id="btnAllUser" />

</td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td>

<div id="UpdatePanel">

</div>

</td>

</tr>

</table>

@section Scripts{

<script>

$(document).ready(function () {

// This is for Get All Data

$("#btnAllUser").click(function () {

$.ajax({

url: "@Url.Action("GetAllUser","User")",

data: "",

type: "GET",

dataType: "json",

success: function (data) {

loadData(data);

},

error: function () {

alert("Failed! Please try again.");

}

});

});

// this will use for Get Data based on parameter

$("#btnSearch").click(function () {

$.ajax({

url: "@Url.Action("GetUserWithParameter","User")",

data: { prefix: $('#txtSearch').val() },

type: "GET",

dataType: "json",

success: function (data) {

loadData(data);

},

error: function () {

alert("Failed! Please try again.");

}

});

});

function loadData(data) {

// Here we will format & load/show data

var tab = $('<table class="myTable"></table>');

var thead = $('<thead></thead>');

thead.append('<th>Business Name</th>');

thead.append('<th>Category</th>');

thead.append('<th>Description</th>');

tab.append(thead);

$.each(data, function (i, val) {

// Append database data here

var trow = $('<tr></tr>');

trow.append('<td>' + val.BusinessName + '</td>');

trow.append('<td>' + val.BusinessCategory + '</td>');

trow.append('<td>' + val.BusinessDescription + '</td>');

tab.append(trow);

});

$("#UpdatePanel").html(tab);

};

});

</script>

}

 

Controller:

public ActionResult GetUser(string keyword)
{
return View(new Tuple(keyword));
}
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult GetSearch(FormCollection frm, string search)
{

return RedirectToAction("GetUser", new { keyword = frm["search"] });
}
public JsonResult GetAllUser()
{
List allUser = new List();



// Here "MyDatabaseEntities " is dbContext, which is created at time of model creation.

using (MvcApplication1Entities2 dc = new MvcApplication1Entities2())
{
allUser = dc.tblBusinessCategories.ToList();
}

return new JsonResult { Data=allUser, JsonRequestBehavior = JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet };
}

public JsonResult GetUserWithParameter(string prefix)
{
List allUser = new List();


// Here "MyDatabaseEntities " is dbContext, which is created at time of model creation.

using (MvcApplication1Entities2 dc = new MvcApplication1Entities2())
{
allUser = dc.tblBusinessCategories.Where(a => a.BusinessDescription.Contains(prefix) || a.BusinessName.Contains(prefix) || a.BusinessCategory.Contains(prefix)).ToList();

}

return new JsonResult { Data = allUser, JsonRequestBehavior = JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet };
}

}
}
