Will keep this as simple a possible:-

I have a have a controller which will return either ViewA or ViewB – e.g.

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult ViewA(BlahModel model)
{
    if (isTrue)
      return View(model);
    else
      return View("ViewB", model);
}

…

The problem I have is that ViewB has a form on it. And what happens is that if it gets returned, the action attribute of the tag still points to ViewA.

/MyControllerName/ViewA

I thought I could do something like this:

using (Html.BeginForm("ViewB","MyControllerName"))

But this returns the following URL in the markup:

/ViewB?action=ViewB&controller=MyControllerName

How can I get the HTML Helper to correctly return the following?

/MyControllerName/ViewB

Many thanks

UPDATE

This was indeed caused by some ugly legacy routing from when the project was half-way between WebForms and MVC

    It’s issue in routing table. Routing engine can’t find route statisfies this action\controller and simply put theese parameters to querystring.
