How to maproute and querystings in mvc?

Manoj Bhatt174530-Oct-2014
I have two routes:
routes.MapRoute(
            "FetchVenue",                                     
            "venue/fetchlike/{q}",                                     
            new { controller = "venue", action = "fetchlike" }      
       );
 
       routes.MapRoute(
            "venue",                                         
            "venue/{venueId}",                                 
            new { controller = "Venue", action = "Index" }   
        );

The url /venue/fetchlike/test is passed to the correct controller The url /venue/fetchlike/?q=test is however passed to the index action.

I want to be able to pass data as a querystring.

Actually the issue was that the route:
routes.MapRoute( "FetchVenue", "venue/fetchlike/{q}",  new { controller = "venue", action = "fetchlike" });

should actually have been:

routes.MapRoute( "FetchVenue", "venue/fetchlike",  new { controller = "venue", action = "fetchlike" });

Meaning that the url would have been:

/venue/fetchlike?q=test

as suggested above by strelokstrelok.

So, in the case of querysting parameters, you DONT define them in the route!
