MVC C# .NET: Passing data from a child partial view to the parent page via ViewContext.ViewBag. This example demonstrates how to set the page title from a child partial view.

gistfile1.cs

// In your HTML helper class, include this function:

/// <summary>
/// Returns the ViewBag of the parent page. Allows a child view to access the parent view's ViewBag object. A child view may then set a property accessible by the parent page.
/// </summary>
/// <returns>ViewBag</returns>
public static dynamic GetPageViewBag(this HtmlHelper html)
{
    if (html == null || html.ViewContext == null) //this means that the page is root or parial view
    {
        return html.ViewBag;
    }

    ControllerBase controller = html.ViewContext.Controller;

    while (controller.ControllerContext.IsChildAction)  //traverse hierachy to get root controller
    {
        controller = controller.ControllerContext.ParentActionViewContext.Controller;
    }

    return controller.ViewBag;
}
        
        

// In your child partial view (ChildView.cshtml), include the following to set the shared data:
@using Web.Helpers

@{Html.GetPageViewBag().PageTitle = "My Custom Property Readable By Parent View"; }



// In your parent view (Page.cshtml), you can access the shared data simply by calling ViewContext.ViewBag:
@{ ViewBag.Title = ViewContext.ViewBag.PageTitle }

// (or for some error-checking and a default value, you can use this code:)
@{ ViewBag.Title = !string.IsNullOrEmpty(ViewContext.ViewBag.PageTitle) ? ViewContext.ViewBag.PageTitle : "Default Title"; }

html == null why it would be necessary? Can HtmlHelper be null? And on top of that if it is null this would crash return html.ViewBag; ?
