How to return a string in same view in mvc

Question

I am trying return a string from controller to the same view in MVC

but its returning to a new view

Below is the code of my view:

@using (Html.BeginForm("Index2", "home", FormMethod.Post))
{

<label></label>    
 <input type="submit" value="Click Me" />
}

Below is the code of my controller:

  public ActionResult Index2()
    {
        string _return = "Hello world";
        return Content(_return);

    }

how can I display "hello world" in the label

thanks.....

Looks like Razor syntax for ASP.NET MVC with c# code. Please note that the model-view-controler tag specifically states to use asp.net-mvc tag for ASP.NET MVC questions. — crashmstr

You can pass the value using Model objects or simply use ViewBag

public ActionResult Index2()
{
    ViewBag.return = "Hello world";
    return View("YourViewName");

}

In View

<label>@ViewBag.return</label>

Partial view is nothing but a part of your view/page. It loads in same view. Above link is just an example to load PV.

Make the model type of your view string like this:

@model string

And use that string in your code like this:

The action told me to say @Model

Another way, if you want to display the content of an action method is to call Html.Action in your view:

@Html.Action("Index2")
