How to use relative URL in jqGrid url parameter in ASP MVC?

Question

I've setup a jqGrid like this

$('#gridTable').jqGrid({
  url: '/GridData/',
...

Now if I navigate to a url such as "/Controller/id/" then the grid will send a GET to "/GridData/" instead of "/Controller/id/GridData/".

Can I make the GET relative so that I can pick the id up on the server side or do I have to manually pass the id as a parmater using javascript on the client?

Answer 1

url: '<%= Url.Action("ActionName", "ControllerName", new { id = whateverYouNeed } %>',

Put your action and controller instead of "ActionName" and "ControllerName"
