title: Dynamic Html.ActionLink parameters with Areas
body: <p>I'm having a problem generating dynamic links to items from my code. </p>
  
  <p>Code that I'm using:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Html.ActionLink("View Checklist Summary", "Details", "Product", 
       new { Area = "Reporting" }, new { Item = 478})
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What I need:
  <strong>URL -- localhost:58412/Reporting/Product/Details?Item=478</strong></p>
  
  <p>What I'm getting:
  <strong>URL -- localhost:58412/Reporting/Product/Details</strong></p>
  
  <p>I've been working on this for way too long, and I can't seem to find any reason why the "Item=478" is not being added to the URL created by the ActionLink.</p>
  
  <p>Any help would be much appreciated.</p>
