Passing html textbox value as a parameter to controllers method in asp.net MVC

Question

I want to pass the Html.Textbox value to a controller from anchor tag, so that I can search the value passed to a controller. Please tell me how can I achieve this.

Answer 1

use jquery

@Html.TextBox("String", null, new { @class="txtString" })
@p

then in your script

$('.txtString').on('blur', function(){
    $('.linkAction').attr('src', '@Url.Action("Index", "Home", new { text = "----" })'.replace("----", $('.txtString').val()));
});
