Answer 1

The following format should work:

$.ajax({
    type: "POST",
    url: "@Url.Action("refresh", "group")",
    contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
    data: JSON.stringify({ 
        myDate: '2011-04-02 17:15:45'
    }),
    success: function (result) {
        //do something
    },
    error: function (req, status, error) {
        //error                        
    }
});
