passing multiple parameters using Ajax(url) in c#

Question

Am having trouble getting multiple parameters with Ajax in MVC. I have two fields that require an input. Input field for Username and CommentText.

I am defining these parameters in the url section of the ajax. It is working fine when I only pass one parameter(works for both when tried separately), but as soon as I try both the latter parameter does not work.

Ajax function:

$(function () {
    $("#button").click(function () {
        $.ajax({
            type: "GET",
            contentType: "application/json; charset=utf8",
            url: "Home/AddComment?CommentText=" + $("#CommentText").val() + "&Username=" + $("Username").val(),
            dataType: "json",
            success: function (Comment) {
                //some function
            },
            error: function (xhr, err) {
                //some code
            }
        });
    });
});

Any ideas? Should I maybe be passing the parameters through "data" instead?

Edit: *This is the controller that should catch these parameters.*

 public JsonResult AddComment(string commentText, string username)
        {
            Comment c = new Comment() { CommentText = commentText, Username = username };
            CommentRepository.Instance.AddComment(c);
            return Json(GetComments(), JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);

        }

Also, you will get an error here $("Username").val() don't forget to add # like $("#Username").val() — Pavlo

well the missing # was the error.. Why is it more preferable to pass it as data vs passing through the url? — user3265963

You can use something like this:

Ajax

$.ajax({
    type: 'GET',
    url: 'Home/AddComment',
    data: { CommentText: $("#CommentText").val(), 
             Username: $("#Username").val() },
    cache: false,
    success: function (result) {            
        desc = result;
    }
});

And then in your controller:

public string AddComment(string CommentText, string Username)
{
    //your code here
}

Hope this will help you.

you can move you all variables/parameters into one array, and then you can try the following.. and then you can read these array values in C#....

var val1=$("#componentName1").val();
var val2=$("#componentName2").val();
...
var parameterArray={val1,val2,val3....}
$.ajax({
         type: "GET",
         contentType: "application/json; charset=utf8",
         url: "Home/AddComment",
          data: parameterArray,
        dataType: "json",
         success: function (Comment) {
             //some function
         },
        error: function (xhr, err) {
             //some code
       }
    });
