What is the best way to execute JavaScript on the main MVC page when an AJAX request in a partial view has finished?

My Asp.net MVC partial view is designed for searching and makes an Ajax call to retrieve results. After the results are displayed, the user can select a search result by clicking on a link in one of the rows. Upon selecting a search result, an Ajax post request updates some state. Following this Ajax call completion, I aim to redirect to another page depending on the current page the user is on. Since this search partial view will be used on multiple pages with different redirect locations, I am struggling to find a solution that doesn't overly tie the partial view and hosting page together.

Another option might involve redirecting to another page after the selection Ajax call finishes, but wouldn't a redirect result within an Ajax call be ignored?

Alternatively, is there a way to include a button or link on each row that triggers a post request leading to a redirect result, based on the calling page?

Answer №1

After some experimentation, I decided to utilize a form of TemplateMethod design pattern to achieve the desired outcome. Within my partial, I included the following JavaScript function:

function onActionCompleted() {
    DoSomethingLocal();
    if (typeof DoSomethingInParentPage == 'function') {
        DoSomethingInParentPage();
    }
}

This function checks for the existence and type of the specified function, calling it if present. By implementing the method `DoSomethingInParentPage` in the hosting page, additional actions can be taken upon completion of an action within the partial. While I have yet to figure out how to validate parameter matching, I am satisfied with receiving a notification once the partial completes its task.
