With MVC5 i have done it like this and it is 100% working code....

@Html.ActionLink(department.Name, "Index", "Employee", new { 
                            departmentId = department.DepartmentID }, null)

You guys can get an idea from this...

Answer 3

I wanted to add to Joseph Kingry's answer. He provided the solution but at first I couldn't get it to work either and got a result just like Adhip Gupta. And then I realized that the route has to exist in the first place and the parameters need to match the route exactly. So I had an id and then a text parameter for my route which also needed to be included too.

Html.ActionLink(article.Title, "Login", "Item", new { id = article.ArticleID, title = article.Title }, null)

Answer 4

Use named parameters for readability and to avoid confusions.

@Html.ActionLink(
            linkText: "Click Here",
            actionName: "Action",
            controllerName: "Home",
            routeValues: new { Identity = 2577 },
            htmlAttributes: null)
