data-ajax-mode,data-ajax-update and data-ajax-mode="replace" not working in dotnet core jquery unobt...

I have an anchor which should replace a grid with a partial view .

data-ajax="true"

data-ajax-method="GET"

data-ajax-mode="replace"

data-ajax-update="content"

data-ajax-url="@Url.Action("add","user")"> Create User

@Html.AjaxGrid(Url.Action("results", "user"))

I see it calls the user action with partial view but it never updates the section with id="content".

Here is my controller method -

[Route("add")]

public IActionResult AddUser()

{

return PartialView("Partials/AddUser",new RegisterViewModel());

}

Ideally it should replace the grid content with the partial view altogether but it is not replacing . The response status is 200 and I can see that the contents are being returned in response . Anybody has any idea what is the issue here ?
