ASPNET MVC RenderAction with javascript parameters

Question

How do I pass javascript variable into MVC RenderAction parameter?

@{Html.RenderAction("GeneratePlayersSelect", new { teamid = ??? ] });}

Please help! Thanks in advance.

You cant. Razor code is parsed on the server before its sent to the client (javascript is client code so its not even in scope) — user3559349

May be you can do it. Just have a id assigned to your Action and set href property again in JavaScript, like this:

@{Html.RenderAction("GeneratePlayersSelect", "your_controller", new { id= "lnkPlayer" });}

And in JavaScript (after document loads), change the href:

document.getElementById('lnkPlayer').href = document.getElementById('lnkPlayer').href + '?teamid='+ yourVariable;

Which will change to 'your_controller/GeneratePlayersSelect?teamid=1'

Hope it works, thank you.
