To load a partial view in an iframe on an AJAX call, you can follow these steps:

  1. Create a partial view in your application that you want to load in the iframe. This partial view should only contain the content that you want to display in the iframe.
  2. In your main view, add an iframe element with a unique ID where you want to load the partial view.
  3. In your JavaScript code, make an AJAX call to your server to fetch the partial view content. You can use jQuery or vanilla JavaScript to make the AJAX call.
  4. In the success callback of the AJAX call, set the content of the iframe with the partial view content that you fetched from the server.


Here is an example using jQuery:

$.ajax({
  url: '/url-to-fetch-partial-view',
  type: 'GET',
  success: function(data) {
    var iframe = $('#myiframe')[0].contentWindow.document;
    iframe.open();
    iframe.write(data);
    iframe.close();
  },
  error: function() {
    console.error('Error loading partial view');
  }
});


Make sure to replace '/url-to-fetch-partial-view' with the actual URL of the server endpoint that returns the partial view content. Also, replace '#myiframe' with the ID of your iframe element in your main view.


By following these steps, you should be able to load a partial view in an iframe on an AJAX call.
