Return PDF to browser using JSON and MVC?

Question

I have a link as follows.

@Html.ActionLink(\"Create Report\", \"Screenreport\", \"Reports\", null, new { @class = \"subNavA AddBorderTop\", id = \"screenRe         


        

Answer 1

I feel obligated to post my answer since I didn't hear from anyone. I ended up creating a form that includes a hidden input, then saved my json object in the hidden input and then submit the form. This time I will get input as an string not a json or xml.

var $hidInput = $("#dataToReport"); 
$hidInput.val(JSON.stringify(Screentable)); 
$('#frmScreenreport').submit(); 

Thanks all anyways.
