Using Html.BeginForm with querystring

Question

My url looks like this:

customer/login?ReturnUrl=home

In the login view, I have used this pattern of code which works fine.

Answer 1

I guess this doesn't directly answer the question, but why not just use a plain old form tag?

Alternatively, you can create a custom HtmlHelperExtension that renders a form with path and querystring. In this HtmlHelperExtension you can iterate through your querystring values and populate the routeValueDictionary which you then pass to a Html.BeginForm constructor.

If you don't want something so extensible you can just use the overloaded constructor of Html.BeginForm using @Html.BeginForm("login", "customer", new {ReturnUrl = @Request.QueryString["ReturnUrl"]},FormMethod.Post, new {data-id="something"});
