# Cant get input parameter to controller, Ajax.ActionLink

Hi Everyone!

```
<script src="@Url.Content("~/Scripts/jquery-1.7.1.min.js")" type="text/javascript"></script>    <script src="../../Scripts/jquery.unobtrusive-ajax.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>    @Ajax.ActionLink("Save", "Index", "Home", new AjaxOptions { UpdateTargetId = "saveResult" }, new { id = "1001" })    <div id="saveResult"></div>
```

\
**[Controller](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/273/passing-values-from-controller-to-view-in-asp-dot-net-mvc)**

```
public ActionResult Index(string id)        {            return View();        }
```

\
Thank in [advance](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/33258/jee-mains-and-jee-advance-exams)!

Hi Jaden!\
You are calling "UpdateTargetId" before passing parameter, that wrong way\
Relpace your Ajax.ActionLink from below

```
@Ajax.ActionLink("Save", "Index", "Home", new { id = "1001" }, new AjaxOptions { UpdateTargetId = "saveResult" })
```

\
I hope it resolve your problem.
