title: How to get parent view from partial view
body: <p>I have a partial view as part of the _Layout.cshtml, so that it gets rendered on multiple pages. Think of the partial view as a menu that gets displayed on every page on the website.</p>
  
  <p>When one of these links in the menu of the partial view is clicked, I can only access/see in the Action Method that gets called the partial view, like it's name etc.</p>
  
  <p>But what I really need to have is the View that the partial view was on when the item was clicked.</p>
  
  <p>How can I get this? </p>
