I have 3 forms on my View. Each of these all post back to a different action. When the action is complete, I call my original Action that led the user to the page originally, but MVC is looking for a view of the postback Action. How can I get MVC to post to an action of a different name of the current view, while still having it reload the same page?

Return this when you are done with your post pack Action:
return RedirectToAction("OriginalAction");

Liked the way this one worked. I had to pass in the parameter it needed as well, so just put RedirectToAction("OriginalAction", new {param = "blah"});
How I would solve the problem:
In your view, for each form:
<% using(Html.BeginForm<ControllerController>(c => c.Action1(param))
{
// Form Stuff
} %>
In your action:
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Action1(type param)
{
// Do your work;
return this.RedirectToAction(c => c.OrigionalAction(param));
}
The strongly typed Html.BeginForm is from MVCFutures (Microsoft.Web.Mvc) The strongly typed RedirectToAction is from MvcContrib.
