C# – Facebook Like Button in ASP.NET MVC C#

asp.netasp.net-mvccfacebook

I've created my website that used to show the products; when the user click on the product, it will show the product detail of each item: I want to put the Facebook Like Button inside them.

I tried using http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/. This is the url that I tried to put: http://ff/Products/ProductSpec/ (it is in my local), but actually each product have different parameter string due to its ID.

<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?
href=http://www.example.com/Prod/Spec/1115?dep=82&cat=243&tab=2"
scrolling="no" frameborder="0"
style="border:none; width:450px; height:80px"></iframe>

But the URL that shared on my wall in facebook just only "http://www.example.com/Prod/Spec/1115?dep=82" NOT "http://www.example.com/Prod/Spec/1115?dep=82&cat=243&tab=2"

Could anyone tell me how to have Facebook Like Button in ASP .NET MVC website with C# please?

Best Answer

You can create an image button of the like button first and then ..associate a label with it with the incremented integer value. If u want to to store it in database u can also do that.

Asp.net-mvc – Compile Views in ASP.NET MVC

From the readme word doc for RC1 (not indexed by google)

ASP.NET Compiler Post-Build Step

Currently, errors within a view file are not detected until run time. To let you detect these errors at compile time, ASP.NET MVC projects now include an MvcBuildViews property, which is disabled by default. To enable this property, open the project file and set the MvcBuildViews property to true, as shown in the following example:

<Project ToolsVersion="3.5" DefaultTargets="Build" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">
  <PropertyGroup>
    <MvcBuildViews>true</MvcBuildViews>
  </PropertyGroup>

Note Enabling this feature adds some overhead to the build time.

You can update projects that were created with previous releases of MVC to include build-time validation of views by performing the following steps:

Open the project file in a text editor.
Add the following element under the top-most <PropertyGroup> element: <MvcBuildViews>true</MvcBuildViews>
At the end of the project file, uncomment the <Target Name="AfterBuild"> element and modify it to match the following:

<Target Name="AfterBuild" Condition="'$(MvcBuildViews)'=='true'">
    <AspNetCompiler VirtualPath="temp" PhysicalPath="$(ProjectDir)\..\$(ProjectName)" />
</Target>

C# – How to create a dropdownlist from an enum in ASP.NET MVC

For MVC v5.1 use Html.EnumDropDownListFor

@Html.EnumDropDownListFor(
    x => x.YourEnumField,
    "Select My Type", 
    new { @class = "form-control" })

For MVC v5 use EnumHelper

@Html.DropDownList("MyType", 
   EnumHelper.GetSelectList(typeof(MyType)) , 
   "Select My Type", 
   new { @class = "form-control" })

For MVC 5 and lower

I rolled Rune's answer into an extension method:

namespace MyApp.Common
{
    public static class MyExtensions{
        public static SelectList ToSelectList<TEnum>(this TEnum enumObj)
            where TEnum : struct, IComparable, IFormattable, IConvertible
        {
            var values = from TEnum e in Enum.GetValues(typeof(TEnum))
                select new { Id = e, Name = e.ToString() };
            return new SelectList(values, "Id", "Name", enumObj);
        }
    }
}

This allows you to write:

ViewData["taskStatus"] = task.Status.ToSelectList();

by using MyApp.Common
