ClientRowTemplate with Html.ActionLink that has ID in the path

[HSO]

Hello:

@(Html.Kendo().Grid<projectInfoViewModel>()

.Name("grid2")

.Columns(cols =>

{

    cols.Bound(e => e.OrgID).Tital("View Detail").Template(e => { }).ClientTemplate(" ");

    cols.Bound(e => e.OrgName).Title("Organization");

})
.DataSource(dataSource => dataSource

.Ajax()
                 .Read(read => read.Action("Index", "Summary"))

    )

     .ClientRowTemplate(

            "<tr>" +

                "<td>" +

                       @Html.ActionLink("#: OrgID#", "Index", "Info", new orgViewModel { oID = int.Parse("#: OrgID#"), uID = int.Parse("#: UserID#") }, null) +

                "</td>" +

                "<td>" +

                    "#: City #<br/>" +

                   "#: ProvinceText#<br/>" +

                    "#: CountryText# " +

                "</td>" +                

             "</tr>"

        )  

 )

I'd like to format the 1st column as Hyperlinks like: <a href="~/Info/Index?oID=999&uID=22">999</a>

however, i am having problem assign value to RouteValue:
new orgViewModel { oID = int.Parse("#: OrgID#"), uID = int.Parse("#: UserID#") }

oID and uID are both int, if I don't have int.parse(), it will complain that 'Cannot implicitly convert type 'string' to 'int'', I've tried Convert.ToInt32(), Int32.Parse(), int.Parse() all give error: Input string was not in a correct format. 

Please advise,
Thank you

Hi Jason,


I would suggest you the following workaround - pass some kind of a placeholder to the Html.ActionLink method and then replace it with the hash syntax values. Here is a sample implementation:
E.g.

@Html.ActionLink("#: OrgID#", "Index", "Info", new orgViewModel { oID = "OrgID", uID = "UserID" }, null).ToHtmlString().Replace("OrgID", "#=OrgID#").Replace("UserID", "#=UserID#")

I hope this approach will work in the current scenario.

 

All the best,
