How to pass in ID with Html.BeginForm()?

Question

In ASP.NET MVC I\'m using the HTML helper

Html.BeginForm(\"ActionName\", \"Controller\", FormMethod.Post);

But I need to post to: /control

Answer 1

Html.BeginForm("action", "controller", new {Id = 12345})

Answer 2

Matt's should work fine. If you are still passing in FormMethod.Post, though, you need to do it like this:

Html.BeginForm("action","controller", new { Id = 12345 }, FormMethod.Post);

Reversing the third and fourth parameters will result in the Id being treated as an attribute instead of a route value.

Answer 3

Html.BeginForm("action", "controller", new { id = ViewBag.FileID },
FormMethod.Post, new { id = "feedbackform" })

As for the querystring, ?type=golden, I don't know how to do that. Of course, a querysting is a get, and undermines the whole purpose of FormMethod.Post. I mean, you could use FormMethod.Get, if you want querystring data, and this might be what you are looking for.

Additionally, you can avoid html.beginform and do the querystring, get + post, manually with a form tag.

Thirdly, if you are using the form, you can make a hidden field:

[input type=hidden name="type" value="golden"]

Then, when the submit button is pressed the value is passed properly as a form variable.
