ASP MVC href to a controller/view

There are a couple of ways that you can accomplish this. You can do the following:

<li>
     @Html.ActionLink("Clients", "Index", "User", new { @class = "elements" }, null)
</li>

or this:

<li>
     <a href="@Url.Action("Index", "Users")" class="elements">
          <span>Clients</span>
     </a>
</li>

Lately I do the following:

<a href="@Url.Action("Index", null, new { area = string.Empty, controller = "User" }, Request.Url.Scheme)">
     <span>Clients</span>
</a>

The result would have http://localhost/10000 (or with whatever port you are using) to be appended to the URL structure like:

http://localhost:10000/Users

I hope this helps.

how about

<li>
<a href="@Url.Action("Index", "Users")" class="elements"><span>Clients</span></a>
</li>

Try the following:

<a asp-controller="Users" asp-action="Index"></a>

(Valid for ASP.NET 5 and MVC 6)

Here '~' refers to the root directory ,where Home is controller and Download_Excel_File is actionmethod

 <a href="~/Home/Download_Excel_File" />

You can modify with the following

<li><a href="./Index" class="elements"><span>Clients</span></a></li>

The extra dot means you are in the same controller. If you want change the controller to a different controller then you can write this

<li><a href="../newController/Index" class="elements"><span>Clients</span></a></li>
