Getting a JSonResult to Redirect

[Bill Crawley]

Hi All,

In my view I havethe following piece of code:

var jSonData = '{ "available" : "  ' + availableArray +
                '", "assigned" : " ' + assignedArray +
                    '", "policyZoneID" : " ' + document.getElementById('policyZoneID').value + '"}';

            $.ajax({
                type: 'POST',
                url: window.rootDir + 'FloatingZone/JsonEditFloatingZone',
                data: jSonData,
                contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8',
                dataType: 'json',
                success: function (response) {
                    window.location.href = response.newLocation;
                },
                error:  function (xmlHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown) {
                    alert(errorThrown);
                }
             });

and then back in the controller:

public JsonResult JsonEditFloatingZone(string available, string assigned, int policyZoneID)
        {
            string newLocation = string.Concat("../../Edit/", policyZoneID);

            string apportionmentLocation = string.Concat("/ParentZoneSectionsApportionment/Edit/", policyZoneID);

            if (FloatingZoneService.EditPolicyZoneFloatingZone(available, assigned, policyZoneID, CurrentUser)) 
                { newLocation = apportionmentLocation; }
 


           return new JsonResult { Data = new { newLocation } };

        }

Now as it stands this all works fine and the view correctly does to my desired location.

I've now been asked to remove the hard coded paths since this may not be the eventual path on deployment and that I should use the conventional MVC way of redirecting. This would be fine if I was performing an ActionResult, but I'm performing a JsonResult, so what's the best way to do this without a total re-design?
