angularjs - ASP.NET MVC View not rendering with layout after form post using angular -

i'm routing views using ngroute , not having particular issues rendering views. problem having when post method , passing list view.

site/page renders view no layout. typing address bar http://localhost:7351/page works , provides layout no view. if post form in http://localhost:7351/main browser url changes http://localhost:7351/site/page , displays results without layout.

form in view main

<form method="post" action="site/page">    <input id="chk_main" type="checkbox" />    <input type=submit> </form> 

routeconfig

routes.maproute(     name: "page",     url: "site/page",     defaults: new { controller = "site", action = "page" } ); 

edit: if change "url: site/page" "url: page" layout show, view won't.

controller

public actionresult index() {     return view(); } public actionresult main() {     return view(persons); } [httppost] public actionresult page() {     return view(); } 

angular route provider:

$routeprovider.     when('/main', {         templateurl: 'site/main'     })     .when('/contact', {         templateurl: 'site/contact'     })     .when('/page', {         templateurl: 'site/page'     }) 

is there i'm missing or don't understand.
