This piece of code used to work in MVC 1 but it does not since I upgraded to MVC 2:
<%=Html.ActionLink(Resources.Localize.Routes_WidgetsCreate, "Create" + "?modal=true", "Widget", null,
new
{
rel = "shadowbox;height=600;width=700",
title = Resources.Localize.Routes_WidgetsCreate
})%>
I am aware it has something to do with the way ActionLink encodes things, so the result that comes out is something like this:
"http://localhost:53704/Widget/Create%3fmodal%3dtrue"
The problem is, when clicked, the Shadowbox modal opens up and inside, where the request View should be rendered is this exception:
Server Error in '/' Application.
A potentially dangerous Request.Path value was detected from the client (?).
What can I do to get past that? Do you recommend another way of sending params to the view besides in QueryString (in this case I need "modal" because in the view I select CSS styles based on whether we are rendering modal or not)?
