asp.net mvc - Redirect to a hash from the controller using "RedirectToAction"

Question

Hello I want to return an anchor from Mvc Controller

Controller name= DefaultController;

public ActionResult MyAction(int id)
{
        return RedirectToAction("Index", "region")
}

So that the url when directed to index is

http://localhost/Default/#region

So that

<a href=#region>the content should be focus here</a>

I am not asking if you can do it like this: How can I add an anchor tag to my URL?

Answer 1

I found this way:

public ActionResult MyAction(int id)
{
    return new RedirectResult(Url.Action("Index") + "#region");
}

You can also use this verbose way:

var url = UrlHelper.GenerateUrl(
    null,
    "Index",
    "DefaultController",
    null,
    null,
    "region",
    null,
    null,
    Url.RequestContext,
    false
);
return Redirect(url);
