I have a dropdown that has a list of ID's in it. The customer will select one and it will reflect a price total on the page. Im creating an ajax call that will update the total when a different ID is pulled from the Dropdown.
$("#BrandId").on('focus', function () {
// Store the current value on focus and on change
previous = this.value;
}).change(function () {
alert("Previous: " +previous);
sel = this.value;
alert("Selected: " +sel);
$.ajax({
cache: false,
type: "get",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
url: '@Url.Action("GetBrandCost", "Shocks")',
data: JSON.stringify({ idp: previous, id: sel }),
dataType: "json",
aysnc: false,
success: function (data1) {
alert(data1);
//ShockTotal = $("#ShockTotal").html();
//ShockTotal = ShockTotal / 1;
////ShockTotal = ShockTotal - data1;
//$("#ShockTotal").html(data1);
}
});
});
The alerts are working perfectly but the ajax isnt passing those ID's into the controller, the controller is just receiving nulls.
public decimal GetBrandCost(string idp, string id)
{
decimal costp = 0;
decimal cost = 0;
if (id == "" || id == null || idp == "" || idp == null)
{
return 0;
}
ShockBrand brandp = db.ShockBrands.Find(idp);
costp = brandp.Cost;
ShockBrand brand = db.ShockBrands.Find(id);
cost = brand.Cost;
cost = cost - costp;
return cost;
}
Since they are null I am hitting my if statement and just returning zero inside the success. Most of the things I read were to add the content type but that didnt seem to help in my case, Im sure it is something little.
