I have a function that calls a method in the controller through an Action URL. However, I need to use a parameter as the name of the method, but unfortunately, this is not possible in the current implementation.
function changeDropDownList(id, dropNameToChange, actionName, descriptionName) {
var control = $('#'+dropNameToChange);
control.prop("disabled", false);
$.ajax({
//At this point, I would like to use the value stored in the actionName variable; however, it only accepts a string.
url: '@Url.Action(actionName, "ThirdPartiesDef")',
dataType: "JSON",
data: { id: id },
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
success: function (result) {
control.empty();
$.each(result, function (index, item) {
control.append(
$('<option/>', {
value: item.Id,
text: item[descriptionName]
})
);
});
},
error: function (error) {
alert("Error: " + error);
}
});
}
I am not very familiar with AJAX. If you know of any simpler methods, I would greatly appreciate your suggestions.
Thank you for your assistance!
