I have the following scenario: Calendar page that loads the initial sale nodes from last 2 months. This page has a Load more button that fetches more Sale items that are 2 additional months of Sales.

I have added the call to the to controller action like this:

public ActionResult LoadMoreSales(int months = 0)
{
        if (Request.IsAjaxRequest())
        {
            if (Request.QueryString["department"] == null)
            {
                return PartialView("Calendar/_Sales", GetSales(0, months));
            }
            else
            {
                int depId = 0;
                Int32.TryParse(Request.QueryString["department"], out depId);

                return PartialView("Calendar/_Sales", GetSales(depId, months));
            }
        }
        else
        {
            return PartialView("Calendar/_Sales");
        }
}

GetSale retrieves the list of SaleViewModel and the _Sales partial is used when accessing the Calendar page and when clicking Load more button. Through this method, the AJAX call is being made and the list is being retrieved.

The _Sales partial inherits the following:

@inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage<IEnumerable<SaleViewModel>>

The click button jQuery event:

$('.js-reload-details').on('click', function (evt) {
    $('div#loading').html('<img src="/images/ajax-loader.gif" />');
    evt.preventDefault();
    evt.stopPropagation();

    var $detailsDiv = $('#detailsDiv'),
        url = $(this).data('url');

    $.get(url, function (data) {
        $detailsDiv.replaceWith(data);
    });

    $('div#loading').empty();
});

And the button click is implemented like this:

<a id="loadMore" class="js-reload-details cta" data-url="@Url.Action("LoadMoreSales", "Calendar", new { months = -2})" href="javascript:;">@Umbraco.GetDictionaryValue("Calendar.LoadMore")</a>

The Sale items are being loaded, but I am unable to access UmbracoHelper and when I add macros to the page, the call breaks since there is no UmbracoContext reference from *UmbracoHelper. Also the following dictionary calls does not work:

@umbracoHelper.GetDictionaryValue("Calendar.ViewDetails")

Anybody had the similiar issue?
