How to use Dictionary<string, string> in View(Jquery)?

Question

I want to display an alert message like follows

alert('' + @Model.DictionaryTest["alertInvalidTemplate"] + '');

but it does not work, I tried the following way too

alert(@Model.DictionaryTest["alertInvalidTemplate"]);

and this too

alert("" + @Model.DictionaryTest["alertInvalidTemplate"] + "");

you should write a function like this $.each(Mydata, function(key, val){ // This function will called for each key-val pair. // You can do anything here with them. }); — Amin Saadati

This should work:

alert('@Model.DictionaryTest["alertInvalidTemplate"]');

Otherwise, you can create hidden, which will hold that value, then get that from JS and show with alert.

View:

@Html.HiddenFor(h => h.DictionaryTest["alertInvalidTemplate"])

JS:

alert($("#DictionaryTest_alertInvalidTemplate_").val());

Notice that in this case, the id of hidden input will become DictionaryName_Key_ (if you do not specify it manually).
