ASP.Net MVC 4 Form with 2 submit buttons/actions

Question

I have a form in ASP.Net and razor.

I need to have two ways of submitting said form: one that goes through the Edit action, and another that goes throug

Answer 1

That's what we have in our applications:
Attribute

public class HttpParamActionAttribute : ActionNameSelectorAttribute
{
    public override bool IsValidName(ControllerContext controllerContext, string actionName, MethodInfo methodInfo)
    {
        if (actionName.Equals(methodInfo.Name, StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase))
            return true;

        var request = controllerContext.RequestContext.HttpContext.Request;
        return request[methodInfo.Name] != null;
    }
}

Actions decorated with it:

[HttpParamAction]
public ActionResult Save(MyModel model)
{
    // ...
}

[HttpParamAction]
public ActionResult Publish(MyModel model)
{
    // ...
}

HTML/Razor

@using (@Html.BeginForm())
{
    
    
    
}

name attribute of submit button should match action/method name

This way you do not have to hard-code urls in javascript
