    <p>I'm just getting started with ASP.NET MVC.</p> <p>What is the difference between MapRoute and routes.Add ? Should I just be using MapRoute? Can I map multiple routes? Which "maps" take precedence... those you called first or last?</p> <p>I'd like to be able to do something similiar to the StackOverflow does for users. But I would like the URL to fit this pattern:<br> "User/{domain}/{username}" to be routed to a UserController</p> <p>and for all other requests to do the typical ASP.NET MVC routing. ex:</p> <pre><code> routes.MapRoute( "Default", "{controller}/{action}/{id}", new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = "" } ); </code></pre> <p><strong>UPDATE:</strong><br> When using the URL: <a href="http://localhost:3962/User/MYDOMAIN/BTYNDALL" rel="noreferrer">http://localhost:3962/User/MYDOMAIN/BTYNDALL</a><br> I get the error: <em>HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.</em> </p> <p>Here is the code I'm using:</p> <pre><code>public class MvcApplication : System.Web.HttpApplication { public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes) { routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}"); routes.MapRoute( "User", "User/{domain}/{username}", new { controller = "User", action = "Index" } ); routes.MapRoute( "Default", "{controller}/{action}/{id}", new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = "" } ); } protected void Application_Start() { RegisterRoutes(RouteTable.Routes); } } </code></pre>

    3. CODSO, maybe. My assumptions about the way routes works was correct. Routes set up first take precedence, confirmed by Brannon. But I'm getting this weird 404 error. Maybe other users will run into this at the same time that they have questions about Routing precedence.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
