ASP.NET MVC passing an ID in an ActionLink to the controller

Question

I can\'t see to retrieve an ID I\'m sending in a html.ActionLink in my controller, here is what I\'m trying to do

    <%= Html.ActionLink(\"Mod         


        

Answer 1

Doesn't look like you are using the correct overload of ActionLink. Try this:-

<%=Html.ActionLink("Modify Villa", "Modify", new {id = "1"})%>

This assumes your view is under the /Views/Villa folder. If not then I suspect you need:-

<%=Html.ActionLink("Modify Villa", "Modify", "Villa", new {id = "1"}, null)%>

Answer 2

The ID will work with @ sign in front also, but we have to add one parameter after that. that is null

look like:

@Html.ActionLink("Label Name", "Name_Of_Page_To_Redirect", "Controller", new {@id="Id_Value"}, null)

Answer 3

On MVC 5 is quite similar

@Html.ActionLink("LinkText", "ActionName", new { id = "id" })

Answer 4

In MVC 4 you can link from one view to another controller passing the Id or Primary Key via

@Html.ActionLink("Select", "Create", "StudentApplication", new { id=item.PersonId }, null) 

Answer 5

Don't put the @ before the id

new { id = "1" }

The framework "translate" it in ?Lenght when there is a mismatch in the parameter/route
