Aynone?

Alt templates should work, but there are exceptions: http://our.umbraco.org/forum/using/ui-questions/37937-What-shall-we-do-with-AltTemplate

You can create a surface controller and let that return json:

Here's a quick example:

public class JsonController : SurfaceController
{
    [HttpPost]
    public ActionResult UpdateVariantAmount(int variantId, string amount)
    {
        //do stuff

        return Json("");
    }
}

$(".quotationAmount").keyup(function () {

    var variantId = $(this).closest("form").find("input[type=hidden]").val();
    var amount = $(this).val();

    $.ajax({
        url: '/umbraco/Surface/Json/UpdateVariantAmount',
        type: 'POST',
        dataType: 'json',
        data: '{ "variantId": ' + variantId + ', "amount": "' + amount + '" }',
        contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8',
        success: function (data) {
            //do stuff
        }
    });

});

Don't forget to add the url to umbracoReservedUrls in the web.config: ,~/umbraco/Surface/Json/UpdateVariantAmount

Hi Jeroen,

From my experiences, alt templates aren't working, but I will confirm it.

I think that i was trying to do was to have a controller that returnet the content in json, something on the likes of this:

http://www.umbraco6.com/mysuperpage --> Returns an html page

http://www.umbraco6.com/mysuperpage/json -->Returns the data of that page in Json

Is this possible?

It should if you add some custom routing: http://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Reference/Mvc/custom-routes

Jeroen

Hmmm... Ok, I have to try it ;)

Thx for the help, I will give feedback :D

What Jeroen said!

Do we need to use MVCBridge in Umbraco 6 to add the view/controller in the template??

No. Just do what it says here and it should work :-). http://our.umbraco.org/documentation/reference/mvc/custom-controllers

Thanks Joroen, Its awesome.. I guess if I want to add it as a partial view, I need to do the same as we do in MVC.

I was cofused the way we adding macros and mvc view in the template, looks both have different ways now..!!

is working on a reply...
