Implement a link back to a search result page from one of its clicked on results. What I am trying to do is pass a search query via a back link and to display the result in a view and then run the search query auto. @Html.

ActionLink("Back to List", "Index", new { searchString= TempData"lastSearchString" } ) I am having trouble trying to implement this concept .

As long as there is a controller parameter called query, and the ViewBag. Query is a valid query string, this should be working. Which part is breaking down?

This should retain the search results and text entered. Not sure if it works on all browsers however.

Page) { tempdata"lastSearchString"=searchString; } in your view @Html. ActionLink("Back to List", "Index", new { searchString= tempdata"lastSearchString" } ).

Thanks for your reply - the code puts the search result, back in the search box after you go back to the index view - However does not redisplay the search result. – Daza Aza Dec 28 '11 at 21:09 that's why, you should not use java script go-back, use action-link like I posted, if you still have problem, paste your view here, so that I can look at it. – HaBo Dec 28 '11 at 22:20.

You could implement it using Session variables or by storing a cookie.

Is there away to implement it without session variables or by storing a cookie. – Daza Aza Dec 27 '11 at 0:05 I have tryed session state before but had no luck. – Daza Aza Dec 27 '11 at 0:06.

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.
