Not sure what I am missing... I am receiving back an error with the ActionName that is causing the code not to compile. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
using System.Web.Mvc;
namespace IssueReporter.Controllers
{
public class IssuesController : Controller
{
public ActionResult Report()
{
return View();
}
[ActionName("Report")]
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult ReportSubmit(
string name, string email, string departmentId, string severity, string Reproducible, string descriptionOfProblem)
{
return View();
}
}
}
@{
ViewBag.Title = "Report an Issue";
}
<h2>@ViewBag.Title</h2>
<form method="post">
<div>
<label for="Name">Name</label>
<input type="text" id="Name" name="Name" />

231,198 PointsTry removing the ActionName decorator and naming the method Report.
It can safely share the same name as the "Get" method since they take different arguments.
Also check your arguments list to be sure each name begins with a lower-case character.

15,891 PointsAhh, that did it! Thanks! Had to change the name of the public ActionResult ReportSubmit( to public ActionResult Report(, remove the ActionName, and make 'Reproducible' become 'reproducible' and I was able to complete. I really appreciate your response. Thanks!
