Hey Friends,

I'm trying to add a link to a page that is in a different area, and pass along an object. The area I'm trying to go to is "" (root). My current actionLink structure creates the correct URL with the exception that the base is wrong (need to remove the leading current area)

URL with link:
http://soemthing.com/manager/tickets/details/1234
Link needs to point here:
http://something.com/TransactionMonitor/TicketsByDay?Defaul...

Here is the code:

C#

@Html.ActionLink("Details", "TicketsByDay", "TransactionMonitor", new GetTicketsByDayRequest { StoreId = @Model.Id, EndDate = @Model.EndDate, StartDate = @Model.StartDate }, null)

TransactionMonitor controller is in the root, but the page with the link is in an area 'Manager'
