ASP.NET MVC - passing parameters to the controller

Question

I have a controller with an action method as follows:

public class InventoryController : Controller
{
    public ActionResult ViewStockNext(int firstItem)
           


        

Answer 1

Or, you could try changing the parameter type to string, then convert the string to an integer in the method. I am new to MVC, but I believe you need nullable objects in your parameter list, how else will the controller indicate that no such parameter was provided? So...

public ActionResult ViewNextItem(string id)...
