asp.net mvc - Return Error or message of a view on another view in mvc -

there login modal on _layout.cshtml page , user can login @ time or @ page. when modal load ,we appending 'login' view modal $("#divmodal").load("/login/index"); while submitting form , works fine. wondering if there way display error or custom message "login failed" on dialogbox on same page except using jquery ajax.

1) tried return view() redirecting page login/index page. 2) can't use partial view have pass login model every other models.

besides using jquery ajax , there other way achieve this.

you can use jsonresult if error occurs. write custom action filter on server catches exception , transforms them json response:

public class myerrorhandlerattribute : filterattribute, iexceptionfilter {     public void onexception(exceptioncontext filtercontext)     {         filtercontext.exceptionhandled = true;         filtercontext.result = new jsonresult         {             data = new { success = false, error = filtercontext.exception.tostring() },             jsonrequestbehavior = jsonrequestbehavior.allowget         };     } } 

then in view can add call in ajax call:

error: function(xhr) {         try {             // try/catch recommended error handler             // occur in many events , there might not             // json response server             var json = $.parsejson(xhr.responsetext);             alert(json.errormessage);         } catch(e) {              alert('something bad happened');         }     }
