ASP.NET MVC Passing ID from Controller to View

Question

Hi I am trying to pass an ID from the URL from a controller to a view. I am also passing a viewmodel that contains two models that have data from a database. Is there another way of doing this? The routemap has been set to send an ID.

The URL would be http://localhost:55147/Home/ViewProject/8 which obviously 8 is the ID of the project, but it does not seem to get this. I am passing the ID to the ViewProject controller function by URL.Action which has the ID passed through the parameter on another page.

Here is my controller:

public ActionResult ViewProject( int? id )
{
    if( id == null )
    {
        return new HttpStatusCodeResult(HttpStatusCode.BadRequest);
    }
    BextecODBEntities DB = new BextecODBEntities();
    var mymodel = new Multipledata();
    mymodel.projectss = DB.Projects.ToList();
    mymodel.projectnotess = DB.ProjectNotes.ToList();
    return View("ViewProject", mymodel);
}

Here is my View:

@foreach(var item in Model.projectss)
{
    if( item.ID.ToString() == Html.ViewContext.RouteData.Values["id"].ToString() )
    {
        @Html.DisplayText("You have clicked on Project ID:" + item.ID.ToString())
    }
}

My multiple data model contains:

public IEnumerable<Projects> projectss { get; set; } 
public IEnumerable<ProjectNotes> projectnotess { get; set; }

Instead of sending a list of Projects I have sent the specific Project data I have defined in the database model using the Project.Find(id) passed through the parameter like you have said
