MVC multiple parameter routing

Question

I've been trying to pull the parameters passed into a page so I can post it back in Context.

So far,

        ViewBag.Message = string.Format("{0}::{1}::{2}",
        RouteData.Values["controller"],
        RouteData.Values["actions"],
        RouteData.Values["id"]);

works with anything simple like "66" or "tt" but anything more complex like "?name=blargh?viewId=66" and it fails.

I've tried a bunch of different ways to see if I could strike gold but nothing seems to work so does anybody have any idea what I'm missing/doing wrong/should be doing instead?

" but anything more complex like "?name=blargh?viewId=66" and it fails.

This doesn't seem to be routing information but query string which you should retrieve from the Request.QueryString bag.

If the {id} parameter is part of your route (as the default routes {controller}/{action}/{id}) I hope you realize that this id cannot be anything you like just because there are rules for an url. For example it cannot contain ? because this symbol has an entirely different meaning in an url - it represents the query string separator.

Thanks I new there must of been something I was missing, once the accept timer runs out or on monday I'll mark this as accepted.

Yeah I was only setting it up to work on both just in case although I should only need to work with parameters, additionally do you know of good site that I should be able to further learn about routing and hoping a way to separate each query key so I wouldn't just be producing a single long url string.
