Generating an action URL in JavaScript for ASP.NET MVC

Question

I\'m trying to redirect to another page by calling an action in controller with a specific parameter. I\'m trying to use this line:

window.open(\'<%= Url.         


        

Answer 1

Could you do

window.open('/report/survey/' + selectedRow);

instead where selected row I assume is the id? The routing should pick this up fine.

or use getJSON

Perhaps you could use JSONResult instead. Wherever the window.open should be call a method instead i.e. OpenSurveyWindow(id);

then add some jquery similar to below

function OpenSurveyWindow(id){
      $.getJSON("/report/survey/" + id, null, function(data) {
          window.open(data);
     });
}

now in your controller

public JsonResult Survey(int id)
{
    return Json(GetMyUrlMethod(id));
}

That code isnt syntactically perfect but something along those lines should work
