Passing JSON objects from javascript to ASP.NET MVC

Question

Hi i have some complex types in javascript and want to pass them to my ASP.NET MVC app, the problem is how? I already added a custom ModelBinder (but i dont see why do i need to do that, unless i need to set some erros). The problem is i have;

var obj = 

    {
      "intvar":"222",
      "stringvar" :"31asd",
      "datevar":new Date(123),
      ....
    }

How do i pass this object to ASP.NET? via query string and via Post method. EDIT: Soz for the bad explanation what i want is:

public class SomeObj
{
  public int intvar;
  public string stringvar;
  public DateTime datevar;
}

public class HomeController : Controller
{
 public someActionMethod(SomeObj o)
{
}

} Thkz in advance.

Answer 1

Make an AJAX call:

var json =
{
    intvar : 222,
    stringvar: '31asd',
    datevar: new Date(123)
}
$.ajax({
            type: "POST",
            url: "<%= Url.Action("handleJson", "<YOUR CONTROLLER NAME>") %>",
            dataType: "json",
            data: json,
            success: function(data) {
                alert(data);
            }
        });

Then your controller method could accept parameters named the same as your json properties:

public ActionResult handleJson(int intvar, string stringvar, DateTime datevar)
{
    return Json("I did cool stuff but you can't see it :)");
}
