Question

I have a cancel button in a form:

@using (Html.BeginForm("ConfirmBid","Auction"))
        {
          some stuff ...

                    <input type="image" src="../../Content/css/img/btn-submit.png" class="btn-form" />
                    <input type="image" src="../../Content/css/img/btn-cancel.png" class="btn-form" />

        }

The issue is I want this button to go to a particular view when I click on it. How do I do this?

Answer 1

Either you can convert the Cancel button as an anchor tag with @Html.ActionLink helper method and apply a css class which makes the link to looks like a button and then in the controller action for that link, you can return the specific view.

@Html.ActionLink("Cancel","Index","Products",null, new { @class="clsButtonFake"})

or

Use 2 submit buttons in the form. One for real submit and one for the cancel. and in your controller action, check which button called the action method.
