Question

I’m getting familiar with MVC 3. I got stuck on the first thing in the tutorial – unbelievable!

This is my Controller-method:

    public string Welcome(string name, int numTimes = 1)
    {
        return HttpUtility.HtmlEncode("Hello " + name + ", NumTimes is: " + numTimes);
    }

And the url I’m using:

http://localhost:49770/HelloWorld/Welcome?name=Adam?numTimes=4

Which should produce this:

Hello Adam, NumTimes is: 4

But it actually becomes this:

Hello Adam?numTimes=4, NumTimes is: 1

It does not separate the params! It must be something really simple I’ve missed!

Answer 1

You’ve got 2 question marks (?). change the second one to an ampersand (&)

http://localhost:49770/HelloWorld/Welcome?name=Adam&numTimes=4
