How to pass parameter in launching new aspx page in MVC

Question

i'm trying to launch a new preview page, for this i'm trying to call when we click on the image. And also i need to pass a ID as parameter to the new page. & i want to receive it in public ActionResult Index method. Here is the code which i have tried.

From parents index.aspx

<a href="#" onclick="openWindow('Preview/Index.aspx?ID = 12344');"><img style="border:0;" src="/Content/Images/approveIcon.png" alt="HTML try" width="20" height="20" /></a>


<script language='Javascript'>
<!--
    // Function to open new window containing window_src, 100x400
    function openWindow(window_src) {
        window.open(window_src, 'newwindow', config = 'height=100, width=400, '
        + 'toolbar=no, menubar=no, scrollbars=no, resizable=no, location=no, '
        + 'directories=no, status=no');
    }
-->
</script>

Here is my new preview controller class

public class PreviewController : Controller
{
    //
    // GET: /Preview/

    public ActionResult Index(String ID)
    {
        return View();
    }

}

I'm getting resource missing error, How to launch new preview window and pass ID as parameter to index method?

check the url that it is trying to open using fiddler or the network tab in the developers tools on the browser. It may be an incorrect url — Nathan Fisher, Apr 16 '14 at 06:07
i'm not getting your syntax. what is that window.location.pathname? where i need to put that, could you please tell in brief, i'm new to this — Naruto, Apr 16 '14 at 06:08
Try using a '/' in front of url like '/Preview/Index.aspx?ID=12344' without space between parameter and value — Kira, Apr 16 '14 at 07:06

I hope it will help: in your link

<a href="#" onclick="openWindow(@Url.Action("Index", "Preview", new { id = "1234" });"><img style="border:0;" src="/Content/Images/approveIcon.png" alt="HTML try" width="20" height="20" /></a>

And in your script

<script language='Javascript'>
 <!--
// Function to open new window containing window_src, 100x400
  function openWindow(window_src) {
    var path = window.location.pathname + window_src;
    alert(path);//So you can see the full path
    window.open(path , 'newwindow', config = 'height=100, width=400, '
    + 'toolbar=no, menubar=no, scrollbars=no, resizable=no, location=no, '
    + 'directories=no, status=no');
  }
-->

Hi, i'm getting error in IE like "Message: Conditional compilation is turned off". And also page is still not opening – Naruto Apr 16 '14 at 06:34
is it possible to use `alert(path)` before `Window.open` so you can see the path – Apr 16 '14 at 06:42

function openWindow(srcid) {
$.ajax({
    url: 'Preview/Index',
    type: "POST",
    dataType: "json",
    data: { ID: 12344},
    success: function (data) {
       alert(error.toString());
    },
    error: function (error) {

        alert(error.toString());
    }
});

}

<a href="#" onclick="openWindow();"><img style="border:0;" src="/Content/Images/approveIcon.png" alt="HTML try" width="20" height="20" /></a>
