Hi hakan.

What I would do here is create a search results document type, template and controller derived from RenderMvcController which will accept the search term from the query string, perform the search and return the results in a view model to the results page for display.

Then in your SurfaceController post method, simply create the URL to the search results page, passing the search term as a query string parameter, and call the Redirect method for it.

Hope this helps.

Hi hakan,

Do you have a view called SearchResults?
