usertable (partialview)

@model ienumerable<webapplication1.models.userdetail> @html.action("usertable") <br /> <div>     <table class="table">         <thead>             <tr>                 //table headers             </tr>         </thead>         <tbody>             @foreach (var item in model)             {                 <tr>                     //various @html.displayfor()                 </tr>             }         </tbody>     </table> </div> 

index (view)

@{html.renderpartial("usertable");} 

if want me clarify or want further details please not hesitate ask. thank in advance.

p.s error occuring in usertable method.

so found solution problem of hints stephen , alexander in comments. me if used render partial didn't execute method each partial view therefore returning null why tried html.action, causes infinite loop, if use render action solution execute methods, hope helps has same problem.
