asp.net mvc 3 - How to use AjaxResponse.Render() to replace a span's text in MVC? -

i replacing 2 divs using ajaxresponse.render() have 2 associated partial views them.

but there span following:

<span id="total-counts">23 comments</span> 

i need replace value well. how call ajaxresponse.render() replace value?

there no associated view span. might easy thing can't make work.

i tried these:

note second param view name.

ajaxresponse.render("#total-counts", "string", comments.count, updatestyle.replace); ajaxresponse.render("#total-counts", "", comments.count, updatestyle.replace); 

none of these work. don't want create partial view unless way.

thx

on ajax success callback use

 $("#total-counts").html(' ');  $("#total-counts").html(comments.count+" comments");
