ASP.Net MVC Route to Username

Question

I am trying to create a route with a Username...

So the URL would be mydomain.com/abrudtkhul (abrudtkhul being the username)

My application will have public

Answer 1

routes.MapRoute(
             "Users",
              "{username}", 
              new { controller = "Users", action="ShowUser", username=""});

Ok, what this will do is default the username parameter to the value of {username}

so even though you've written username="" it'll know to pass the value of {username} .. by virtue of the strings match.

This would expect

for the url form

http://website.com/username

• Users Contoller
• ShowUser Action (method in controller)
• username parameter on the ShowUser action (method)
