In this article, I will show to how to return a string result using ActionResult in mvc 4. You can achieve this by ContentResult to return a string. It will create content result object by using a string.


Controller Action Method:

 

public ActionResult GetHtmlPage(string path)

        {

          string strHTML = System.IO.File.ReadAllText(Server.MapPath(path));
          return  Content(strHTML);

        }

View: 

<div class="panel" >

            @Html.Action("GetHtmlPage", "LoadHtml", new { path = "~/practice/dialog.html" })

        </div>

I created an html file and named as dialog.html and going to return as string result using ActionResult for html page in asp.net MVC.

Dialog.html:

<body>
    <div id="dialog">
        <header>A dialog box of some description</header>
        Lorem ipsum etc, etc.
        <footer>
            <button>Ok</button></footer>
    </div>
</body>

 

Output:

ContentResult Controller Action Method
