Hello,

Seeking, so far to no avail, a simple solution to this problem:

My XHTML menu images are pulled from a stylesheet.  My hard coded URLs are giving me another kind of grief (separate story).

<li><a href="/home/about" class="aboutus"></a></li>

In pseudo-mvc code, I'm trying to do this:

<li>< <%= Html.ActionLink<VanillaController.AuthenticationController>( x => x.Logout(), "Logout" )%> class="Logout"></a</li>

Suggestions very much appreciated.

One of the overloaded methods adds a parameter for htmlAttributes. I am using preview 2, so hopefully this is there for whatever version you are using.

public static string ActionLink<T>( Expression<Action<T>> action, string linkText, object htmlAttributes )

 Your code would be something like this:

<li><%= Html.ActionLink<VanillaController.AuthenticationController>( x => x.Logout(), "Logout", new { class = "Logout" } )%></li>

Thank you for the recommendations.

The html attributes object does *not* like the word "class" in the anon. type. 

Your second suggestion, however, works like a charm:

<li> <a href="<%= Url.Action( "index", new { controller="Products" }) %>" class="catalog"> </a></li>

Thanks!

Sorry about that.  "class" is a reserved word obviously.  Just for reference later on you can put an @ sign in front of it to use reserved words as properties, variables, etc...

 So it would look something like this:

<li><%= Html.ActionLink<VanillaController.AuthenticationController>( x => x.Logout(), "Logout", new { @class = "catalog" } )%></li>
