MVC3 Putting news article titles in links
Hi Experts,
I have a site with news articles and we want to be able to link to these news articles using the following format
http://www.website.com/news/24/this-is-the-news-today
Currently the news is served using this example address http://www.website.com/news/24
What i thought would be the way to do this was to use global.asax.cs and add a maproute that processes the url to ignore the additional text and just use the normal controller action and id.
Unfortunately for me i've got no experience in routes or url re-writing and Im open to suggestions if there is a more efficient way of doing what i want to achieve.
A couple of other examples doing similar to what I want to do are below
Regards
Steve
