How to pass values from one page to another without using Querystring

Templates, (partial) views and macros

Umbraco 7

Hi,

I have a requirement to pass few color code values from one page to another. How do i do it without passing the values in the URL?

In the parent page, I have a list of brand names, each brands has its own color codes. So when i click the link of any particular brand, I am redirecting to a common page where I have to update text heading, sub menu back ground color based on the brand name click.

Can I use macro to set values in parent page and read it in the sub page? or Is there any other way?

would be good, if i get some sample piece of code.

Hi,

I am not sure of your exact needs but one idea would be to use javascript and store information using cookies. Sorry I have no sample code though.

Good luck,

/Martin

Instead of a GET, is it possible for to try using a POST?

There are several ways of passing data with a POST (with MVC, JavaScript, AngularJS, etc. ...)

Using a Form you could send parameters as hidden fields. If the submit action of that form calls your MVC controller, having something like:
```
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult YourAction(int brandId) {...}
```
Instead of a Form, you could also try using a JavaScript Ajax call to pass data:
```
$.ajax({
    type: "POST",
    url: '@Url.Action("...", "...")',
    data: { brandId: @brand.Id },
    success: function (data) {
        //do stuff
    }
});
```

Create a partial view and call like that

@Html.Partial("MyPartial", valueModel)

and in partial

................................ @model valueModel
@{
```
    var pageUrl = Request.Url.AbsoluteUri;

}



<section class="form">
    <div class="content-wrap flush--ends">
```
@valueModel.whatever

Hi Manish,

Could you please expalin in details. I couldn't get your information. Both my parent page and sub page are Umbraco pages.

homepageTemplate.cshtml
```
<ul>
<li><a href="/subpage/">Brand1</a></li>
<li><a href="/subpage/">Brand2</a></li>
<li><a href="/subpage/">Brand3</a></li>
</ul>
```
childpageTemplate.cshtml
```
<h1>heading text</h1>
foreach (var childPage in CurrentPage.Children.Where("hideInNavigation==false"))
{
    <div>
         <a href="@childPage.Url">@childPage.Name</a>                              
    </div>
}
```
here subpage is following "childpageTemplate" template and clicking any brand will redirect to "childpageTemplate.cshtml". so in that template i should get few values(brand name, title color menubgcolor) related to Brand which is clicked.
