How to Pass textbox value using @html.actionlink in asp.net mvc 3

asp.net-mvc, asp.net-mvc-3

Solution

Rather than passing your value using @Html.actionlink, try jquery to pass your textbox value to the controller as:

$(function () {
    $('form').submit(function () {
        $.ajax({
            url: this.action,
            type: this.method,
            data: { search: $('#textboxid').val()},
            success: function (result) {
                $('#mydiv').html(result);
            }
        });
        return false;
    });
});

This code will post your textbox value to the controller and returns the output result which will be loaded in the div "mydiv".
