Partial(string viewName, object model) not working when use in Razor Page

Describe the bug

Razor Page Code like below (reference to: https://www.learnrazorpages.com/razor-pages/ajax/partial-update)

public class AjaxPartialModel : PageModel
{
    private ICarService _carService;
    public AjaxPartialModel(ICarService carService)
    {
        _carService = carService;
    }
    public List<Car> Cars { get; set; }
    public void OnGet()
    {
    }
    public PartialViewResult OnGetCarPartial()
    {
        Cars = _carService.GetAll();
        return Partial("_CarPartial", Cars);
    }
}

will not work. method Partial will throw an exception like:

InvalidOperationException: The model item passed into the ViewDataDictionary is of type ‘List< Car >’, but this ViewDictionary instance requires a model item of type 'AjaxPartialModel '.

so I checked the Partial’s source code, found:

public virtual PartialViewResult Partial(string viewName, object model)
{
      ViewContext.ViewData.Model = model; 
// here ViewContext is member of AjaxPartialModel, so it accept only model of type AjaxPartialModel, 
// so I think here we need create a new ViewDataDictionary to accept model in parameter.

      return new PartialViewResult
      {
            ViewName = viewName,
            ViewData = ViewContext.ViewData
      };
}

maybe this method should change to:

public virtual PartialViewResult Partial<T>(string viewName, T model)
{
      return new PartialViewResult
      {
            ViewName = viewName,
            ViewData = new ViewDataDictionary<T>(ViewData, model);
      };
}

I had not check this implementation in depth, so maybe something is wrong above. Appreciate further details

Seems you have a spelling error. In the AJAX call, you are calling the handler TestAjaxCal. But your handler in the C# code is named OnGetTestAjaxCall - in other words one l vs 2 ls

Fix the handler in the AJAX to be named TestAjaxCall

In either case, your problem is not related to this particular GitHub issue. If my suggestion above does not work for you, then I suggest you rather seek help at a place like StackOverflow.

Thank you, Jerrie, now it works!
