I've already implemented URL routing in my app but there are cases where I may or may not get a paramter. In particular, I'm trying to come up with a good way to handle multi-language support. For example, if my regular URL is /SomeCategory/Friendly-Topic-URL, I want to have an optional language selector at the end but I'd like to be optional. So, if I get /SomeCategory/Friendly-Topic-URL/es, that should bring up the topic in Spanish but if get nothing, that should bring up English.

I would like to have two different welcome pages for a site.How could I handle this? I've looked at routing but I'm not sure if global.asax.cs is the correct place to place this into.
www.mycompany.com should display generic information. Displaying view Home/Default.aspx
www.mycompany.com?id=1 should display welcome customer x. Displaying view Home/Welcome.aspx
I have the following scenario: my website displays articles (inputted by an admin. like a blog).So to view an article, the user is referred to Home/Articles/{article ID}.However, the user selects which article to view from within the Articles.aspx view itself, using a jsTree list.So I what I need to do is to be able to differentiate between two cases: the user is accessing a specific article, or he is simply trying to access the "main" articles page. I tried setting the "Articles" controller parameter as optional (int? id), but then I am having problems "using" the id value inside the controller.

I'm using the iis7 URL Rewrite module and it's working fine, except for two things. Being new to this, I might be missing something obvious.
1) My URL gets converted from www.mysite.com/search.aspx?fName=John&sName=Smith to www.mysite.com/John/Smith. This works fine, but if I add a trailing / , a few images on the site disappear, wheras a few don't. (They're all in the same location). However, the search results are fine.
2) Is it possible to make cerain querystrings optional? Server side, this is implemented (i.e. if nothing is entered, then assume a default value). But how would this work with the URL rewrite module? e.g. www.mysite.com/John would search for John and use a default value for the sName parameter.
I have the following JSON class I am intending to use to perform management calls on my database asynchronously:
<script type="text/javascript">
var CalendarManager = {
defaultOptions: {
staffcode: 0, // required
date: 0, // required
[Code]....
Basically, my question is: how do I specify optional parameters to a WebMethod when providing JSON data?
I know I can reduce the parameters down to just the required values, and then use HttpContext.Request.Params to read the values of optional paramaters, but I would have thought the way I have tried here should have worked.
EDIT
The XMLHttpRequest.responseText value for the error is:
Invalid JSON primitive: staffcode.
This is throwing me even more off the scent of the problem :(

Basically I have RegisterModel2 that has a Person class. My requirement is that Phone Number and Address are not required for registration. But if they try to enter a Phone number of Address then it should validate it. Problem is that it is always stating that the child fields of Phone (area code, number) and child fields of Address (street1,city,etc) are required. Is there a way to annotate in the RegisterModel that a parent class is not Required but if any data in a child element is given then and only
then should the child elements be validated?
My Person EDM class has a nullable 0.1 -> 0.1 navigation property to Phone and Address.Here is the person class

I am using MVC 2.
I have 2 controllers called Application and Note. The application is a loan application. A note can be added to an application.
On my Index I have a grid that displays all the applications, and an action column with a link that says "Add Note".
In my Application controller I have action methods for create and edit. In my Note controller I have action methods for create, edit and delete.
I was wondering if the following is possible when the user clicks on the "Add Note" link to go to a URL like:
Application/1/Note/Create
1 is the application ID. Note would be the Note controller, and Create is the action method in the Note controller. Is something like this possible?
I started with the mapping in my global.asax, but not sure if it is correct:
routes.MapRoute(
null,
"Application/{ApplicationID}/{controller}/{action}",
new { controller = "Note", action = "Create" });
How would I create the link in my grid using the action link?
EDIT:
The grid above is on my Index view in my Home direcotry. So on this grid I need to concatenate the link to display as above. I'm struggling to create this link on my Index view. It's not concatenating correctly. Currently I have this:
Html.ActionLink("Add Note", "Create", "Note", new { ApplicationID = c.ApplicationID }, null)
And it is displaying as /Note/Create/?ApplicationID=1
I need it to display as:
/Application/1/Note/Create

I consider the following an error, and not a feature:
When posting a request, any parameters are held in the HttpContext.Request.Form as key/value pairs. This is perfectly fine for the recipient of the request. Unfortunately, however, further down the chain these values still exist and take precedent in binding over new parameters created during processing.
This is obvious in the RenderAction scenario. If a new parameter is created in a view and passed through RenderAction, if the parameter has the same name as one of the initial request parameters (or a form field for that matter), then MVC Binding will bind the initial request form value to the Action being called, and not the new parameter being defined in the RenderAction call. What's even more frustrating, is there is no easy way to override the initial form values.
It really does not make sense that a value defined in one context, should live throughout the entire processing context... at least without the developer being able to determine it should remain. At a minimum, any new parameter defined in the process with the same name should either a) be received as a parameter and not a form value; or b) override the form value.
