How do I set the class attribute in Html.ActionLink.  When I include for htmlAttributes: new { class = "border" } I get a compiler error.
This is the full line: 

<% = Html.ActionLink("TextLink", "Action", "Controller", new { class = "border" } ) %>
Thanks.

Hi Deshaun Hyram! But You cann't  use the word "class" because this is reserved keyword . You can try the variant below. For correct use you should be putting symbol "@" before the keyword "class".
<% = Html.ActionLink("TextLink", "Action", "Controller", new { @class = "border" } ) %>
