Hi Ezequie,

We would like to let you know that, we cannot directly make the Html.ActionLink to work using button. Since Html.ActionLink returns the anchor tag. So we have to customize CSS style to the anchor tag to look like a button. Else we have to use “@Url.Action(“actionName”,”controllerName”)” in order to redirect to the view page. Both Html.ActionLink and Url.Action will works similarly. Hence we can use Url.Action instead of Html.ActionLink. For your convenience we have prepared the sample based on your requirement. Please download the same in the following location.

Sample Location: Sample

In the above sample we have created the button and binded the click event in the script section. In the click event we have given the Url.Action to redirect to the view page. Please find the following code snippet for more reference.

We have created the button in CSHTML page as follows.

[CSHTML]

<button id="button1">

button>

 

We have initialized the Button and Url.Action in the script section as follows.

[Javascript]

<script type="text/javascript">

    $(document).ready(function () {

        $("#button1").ejButton({

            "click": "onclick",

            text: "Click Here"

        });

    });

    function onclick() {

        document.location = '@Url.Action("Index","Home")';

    }

script>

Please let us know if you have further concern.
