ASP.NET MVC ActionLink: Strange URL generated?

Your exception only tells you that your custom route is catching something that you didn't intend it to catch. So if there would be a request to your application root URL.

Yes, if there is no route such as "{controller}/{action}/{id}/{step}" then the ActionLink method will simply pass "step" as a querystring parameter.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
