How can i create action image html helper in asp.net mvc like below..
@Html.ActionImage("actionName", "controllerName", "routeValues")
similarly like below helper...
@Html.Action("actionName", "controllerName", "routeValues")
Thanks in advance.....
You can create custom helper class like..
namespace MyNamespace
{
public static class MyHeleprs
{
public static MvcHtmlString ActionImage(this HtmlHelper html, string actionName, string controllerName, object routeValues, string imagePath, string alt)
{
var url = new UrlHelper(html.ViewContext.RequestContext);
// build the <img> tag
var imgBuilder = new TagBuilder("img");
imgBuilder.MergeAttribute("src", url.Content(imagePath));
imgBuilder.MergeAttribute("alt", alt);
string imgHtml = imgBuilder.ToString(TagRenderMode.SelfClosing);
// build the <a> tag
var anchorBuilder = new TagBuilder("a");
anchorBuilder.MergeAttribute("href", url.Action(action, controllerName, routeValues));
anchorBuilder.InnerHtml = imgHtml; // include the <img> tag inside
string anchorHtml = anchorBuilder.ToString(TagRenderMode.Normal);
return MvcHtmlString.Create(anchorHtml);
}
}
}
To make this helper available in your view, add its namespace as follows:
@using MyNamespace
Now you can get html helper in your views like below...
@Html.ActionImage(actionName, controllerName, routeValues, imagePath, imgAlt)
Try this custom Html helper:
public static IHtmlString ImageActionLink(this HtmlHelper htmlHelper, string linkText, string action, string controller, object routeValues, object htmlAttributes,string imageSrc)
{
var urlHelper = new UrlHelper(htmlHelper.ViewContext.RequestContext);
var img = new TagBuilder("img");
img.Attributes.Add("src", VirtualPathUtility.ToAbsolute(imageSrc));
var anchor = new TagBuilder("a") { InnerHtml = img.ToString(TagRenderMode.SelfClosing) };
anchor.Attributes["href"] = urlHelper.Action(action, controller, routeValues);
anchor.MergeAttributes(new RouteValueDictionary(htmlAttributes));
return MvcHtmlString.Create(anchor.ToString());
}
