FormCollection in MVC4 with Html Actionlink

Question

I am using HTML ActionLink in MVC4. I need to remove QueryStrings using formCollection. How to Use it?

Here is my Code:

       <div class="mainNav">
            <nav>
                  <ul>
                        @for (int i = 0; i < Query.Count - 1; i++)
                        {                            
                            <li>@Html.ActionLink(Query[i].Parent_Menu,"ManageContent","Home", new { CmsFid = Query[i].CMSFunction_Id,ParentMenu=Query[i].Parent_Menu  },new { @style = "color:#FFF;text-decoration:none" })</li>

                        }
                        @for(int i=Query.Count-1;i<Query.Count;i++)
                        {
                        <li>@Html.ActionLink(Query[i].Parent_Menu,"ManageContent","Home", new { CmsFid = Query[i].CMSFunction_Id,ParentMenu=Query[i].Parent_Menu  },new {@class="last", @style = "color:#FFF;text-decoration:none" })</li>
                        }
                </ul>
            </nav>
        </div>

If you are generating dynamic menus then why do you need `Query` parameters? Check [this](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22498255/how-to-creating-a-dynamic-sub-menus-by-sub-categories/22503615#22503615) answer if it helps. — Nilesh, Mar 27 '14 at 06:16

I dont think that you will be able to get the formCollection elements in your action (using Html.ActionLink). Also if you are able you may need to parse them or type cast them for your properties. so I recomend you to have an action method like

 public ActionResult  ManageContent(int CmsFid,string ParentMenu)
    {
    }

well you can use formCollection for form post where you may have many data

if its a form post you can use like this

 public ActionResult YourPostMethod(FormCollection formData)
{
   int CmsFid=int.Parse(formData["CmsFid"]);
}
