asp.net mvc 3 - using javascript variable in MVC3 Razor view engine

Question

Is it possible?

@Html.ActionLink( "Link text", "Action Name", new { id = *JAVASCRIPT VARIABLE* })

Please explain with example code.

Answer 1

It actually is very much possible with the following:

var hello = "Great Job!";

var text = "@Html.ActionLink( "Link text", "Action Name", new { id = "JSVar" })"
text = text.replace("JSVar",hello);

As easy as that! :)

All the @Html.Action link does is create a url string so doing replace on it is the same as replace on any javascript string
