Pass a parameter to a controller
I'm calling a SurfaceController from a PartialMacro and want to pass a parameter to the controller. Something like:
```
@inherits Umbraco.Web.Macros.PartialViewMacroPage

@{
    int FolderId = 1096;
    Html.Action("Index", "DocumentListSurface", FolderId);  
}
```
Picked up in the Controller with:
```
   public ActionResult Index(int FolderId)
```
The Html.Action in the PartialMacro gets an error.

What am I doing wrong?

Your help would be much appreciated.

Thanking you in anticipation.

Hi Roger,
Wouldn't you need to wrap the route values (FolderId) in a typeless object?

example:
```
Html.Action("Index", "DocumentListSurface", new { FolderId });  
```
There shouldn't be any need to do
```
Html.Action("Index", "DocumentListSurface", new { FolderId = FolderId });  
```
As the local parameter name matches the route parameter name already. I hope that helps.

Thanks,
Jamie
