How can I pass a parameter to the server (MVC)

rshun

Hi,

I am using following javsscript to send ajax request to server

var editor = new $.fn.dataTable.Editor({
            ajax: "@Url.Action("Test")",
            table: "#example",
            fields: [{
                ...
             }];

How can I pass a parameter to the server (MVC)?

public ActionResult Test(String parameter)
{
...
}

Can I use the following way to pass parameter in JSON?

var editor = new $.fn.dataTable.Editor({
            ajax: function (method, url, data, success, error) {
                $.ajax({
                    type: 'Post',
                    url: "@Url.Action("Test")",
                    data: parameter,
                    dataType: "json",
                    success: function (json) {
                        success(json);
                    },
                    error: function (xhr, error, thrown) {
                        error(xhr, error, thrown);
                    }
                })
            },
            table: "#example",
             fields: [{
                ...
             }];

To send parameters to the server, you can use ajax.data - there are a few examples on that page that should get you going,
