Passing multiple parameters from url to html.actionlink

Finally, you need pass two parameters to the view:

Index action:

public ActionResult Index(int id, int memberid)
{
    ...
    ViewBag.cafID = id;
    ViewBag.personID = memberid;
    return View();
}

Index.cshtml

@Html.ActionLink("Create New", "Create", "PersonCAFDetail", new { id=ViewBag.cafID , memberid =ViewBag.personID}, null)

And Check your route syntax... id = @"\d+"

 routes.MapRoute(
    name: "PersonCAFDetail",
    url: "PersonCAFDetail/Create/{id}/{memberid}",
    defaults: new { controller = "PersonCAFDetail", action = "Create", id = @"\d+", memberid = @"\d+" }                        
    );

    I'm fairly new to MVC and am struggling with routing when I try to pass multiple parameters via the URL.

    From a page with the URL: /PersonCAFDetail/Index/3?memberid=4

    ...I'm trying to get an Html.ActionLink set to point to the Create action such that the id=3 and the memberid=4.

    Having read a number of similar posts it seems that the following should work:

    @Html.ActionLink("Create New", "Create", null, new { memberid = "memberid" })
    

    However, this results in a URL being created as follows:

    <a href="/PersonCAFDetail/Create/3" memberid="memberid">Create New</a>
    

    I have a route set up as:

        routes.MapRoute(
            name: "PersonCAFDetail",
            url: "PersonCAFDetail/Create/{id}/{memberid}",
            defaults: new { controller = "PersonCAFDetail", action = "Create", id = "@\d+", memberid = @"\d+" }                        
            );
    

    The controller accepts two parameters as follows:

     public ActionResult Create(int id, int memberid)
            {
                int cafID = id;
                int personID = memberid;
                ViewBag.detailTypeID = new SelectList(db.tCAFDetailTypes, "detailTypeID", "detailType");
                ViewBag.cafID = new SelectList(db.tFamilyCAFs, "cafID", "issues");
                ViewBag.personID = new SelectList(db.tPersons, "personID", "forename");
                return View();
            }
    

    Any help appreciated.
