Including an anchor tag in an ASP.NET MVC Html.ActionLink
asp.net-mvc
Solution
I would probably build the link manually, like this:
<a href="<%=Url.Action("Subcategory", "Category", new { categoryID = parent.ID }) %>#section12">link text</a>
Problem
In ASP.NET MVC, I'm trying to create a link that includes an anchor tag (that is, directing the user to a page, and a specific section of the page). The URL I am trying to create should look like the following: ``` <a href="/category/subcategory/1#section12">Title for a section on the page</a> ``` My routing is set up with the standard: ``` routes.MapRoute("Default", "{controller}/{action}/{categoryid}"); ``` The action link syntax that I am using is: ``` <%foreach (Category parent in ViewData.Model) { %> <h3><%=parent.Name %></h3> <ul> <%foreach (Category child in parent.SubCategories) { %> <li><%=Html.ActionLink<CategoryController>(x => x.Subcategory(parent.ID), child.Name) %></li> <%} %> </ul> <%} %> ``` My controller method is as follows: ``` public ActionResult Subcategory(int categoryID) { //return itemList return View(itemList); } ``` The above correctly returns a URL as follows: ``` <a href="/category/subcategory/1">Title for a section on the page</a> ``` I can't figure out how to add the #section12 part. The "section" word is just the convention I am using to break up the page sections, and the 12 is the ID of the subcategory, i.e., child.ID. How can I do this?
