How to pass String in Querystring Parameter in @Html.ActionLink

Question

I have written following code:

@Html.ActionLink("Edit", "EditPost", new { id = item.PostID })

It displays URL like .../Post/EditPost/32 but actually I want to display it like ...../Post/EditPost?ID=32

How is it possible in Razor View???

The URL construct is generally dictated by the route, if you want to force it to use the query string then just remove any notion of a parameter from it e.g.

routes.MapRoute(
    "EditPostRoute",
    "Post/EditPost",
    new { controller = "Edit", action = "EditPost" }
);

Your @Html.ActionLink code should generate .../Post/EditPost?ID=32.

Change Action Edit parameter from int to string. Then it will display as you want

public ActionResult Edit(string ID)
{
     =======
     =======
}

@Html.ActionLink("Edit", "EditPost", new { ID = item.PostID },null)

Another solution remove id = UrlParameter.Optional from the Global.asax/Route Table
