Question

I am using WebGrid in My MVC application , for paging I am using this code

  var links = $('a[href*=page], a[href*=sort]');
        form = $('form')[0];
        links.click(function () {
            debugger;
            form.attr("action", this.href);
            $(this).attr("href", "javascript:");
            form.submit();
        });

@using (Html.BeginForm(Model.PostToAction, "Leads", FormMethod.Post))

when form.submit() is executed it is Executed as GET and not POST ,

what am I doing wrong ?

UPDATE:

My form is :

<form action="/Leads/DetailsLeads" method="post">

Controller is :

 [HttpPost]
        public ActionResult DetailsLeads(LeadDetailsViewModel model)

Try adding e.preventDefault() inside of your links.click(function(){} block. Without this, the browser will still attempt to do the action you instructed it to do (a GET request on the clicked link).

var links = $('a[href*=page], a[href*=sort]');
        form = $('form')[0];
        links.click(function (e) {
            e.preventDefault();
            debugger;
            form.attr("action", this.href);
            $(this).attr("href", "javascript:");
            form.submit();
        });
