How can I bind specific view pages to selected dropdown list option?
This is the dropdown list inside my main view.
@using(Html.BeginForm("selectFrom", "Company", FormMethod.Get))
{
@Html.DropDownList("CATEGORIES",
new List<SelectListItem>
{
new SelectListItem {
Text="COMPONENT",
Value="COMPONENT",
},
new SelectListItem {
Text="SOFTWARE",
Value="SOFTWARE",
},
new SelectListItem {
Text="SERVICE",
Value="SERVICE",
}
})
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
}
Is it possible to do something like this inside the same action result?:
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult selectFrom(string CATEGORIES)
{
if (CATEGORIES=="COMPONENT")
{
//return View(_context.COMBINED.Where(x => x.Laptop != " ").ToList());
}
if (CATEGORIES=="SOFTWARE")
{
.......
}
}
or inside different action results: `
public IActionResult COMPONENT(){
return View(_context.COMBINED.Where(x => x.Laptop != " " || x._2_In_1 != "").ToList())
}
public IActionResult SOFTWARE(){
return View(_context.COMBINED.Where(x => x.Laptop != " " ).ToList())
}

I solved it by using different action methods and added
new {onchange = "window.location.href='/Company/' this.value;"}
inside the drop down list
