For me this worked after I downloaded AJAX Unobtrusive library via NuGet :
Search and install via NuGet Packages: Microsoft.jQuery.Unobtrusive.Ajax
Than add in the view the references to jquery and AJAX Unobtrusive:
@Scripts.Render("~/bundles/jquery")
<script src="~/Scripts/jquery.unobtrusive-ajax.min.js"> </script>
Next the Ajax ActionLink and the div were we want to render the results:
@Ajax.ActionLink(
"Click Here to Load the Partial View",
"ActionName",
null,
new AjaxOptions { UpdateTargetId = "toUpdate" }
)
<div id="toUpdate"></div>
