Cant Even Figure Out What Terms to Use to Search By

[BitLost]

I have been playing with this idea a couple of days and frustrated by google not returning anything I can make sense of I am thinking I am phrasing the question wrong.

What I have is a view for capturing input from the user. In this case a specific procedure.

However there is no reason only one procedure may be required, in fact many often would be.

What I am wanting to do is add a button to the view to save the record and reload the view for the next entry. I assumed this would be a case of redirecting to the create method after saving, however this doesn't result in a reload, so perhaps I am missing something in my code or thinking. Not to be deterred I did a google search but the returns I am getting don't look like what I am asking. I assume I am phrasing my question to Google badly?

Is the code I am working with.

Can someone explain why this doesn't work?

What is the approach I should try?

What phrase or terms I should use to Google this question?

Figured some of it out.

1: I was redirecting to the wrong action
2: I had the view aspaction set to an action in my controller. Removing this and tying the buttons to the actions directed the form to reload as I intended.

One mystery remains however...Why isn't the view component reloading when the form is saved? Do I need to explicitly instruct it to refresh? Can I do this from controller?
