In ASP.NET MVC I see I have handy HTML helpers that I can use to construct form fields and any number of other little things. But then there's 'ActionLinks'.
Why use an ActionLink instead of just writing the darn url myself in an HTML anchor tag?
In other words, why would I use
<%: Html.ActionLink("Back to List", "QuantityTypes") %>
instead of just using plain ol' HTML and writing:
<a href="/internal/quantitytypes">Back to List</a>
Surely, I must get something extra with the ActionLink. I'm just missing it, right?
