Question

I have a page with a input box and a button, when the user clicks the button i want to redirect to a controller action that has as parameter the value of the input box.

<input id="CodProiect" type="text" />
<input id="Cauta" type="button" value="Cauta" onclick="window.location.href='@Url.Action("Cauta", "Componente", new { CodProiect = "param" })';"/>

How can i get the “param” from the input box ?

Answer 1

You could just use a form with a GET method

<form action="@Url.Action("Cauta", "Componente")" method="GET">
  <input id="CodProiect" name="CodProiect" type="text" />
  <input id="Cauta" type="submit" value="Cauta" />
</form>

The form will add the parameter as part of the query string of the URL e.g. http://www.yoursite.com/Cauta/Componente?CodProiect=user+entered+value
