Iframe Src from controller

I have an Iframe in a view that i need to populate the src from my controller This is the part of the controller that it has to be called from. 

 else
            {
                //TODO: add after mobile detection is added back in
                //if (Request.Browser.IsMobileDevice)
                //    return RedirectToAction("Index", "Mobile", new { Area = "" });
                //else
                return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home", new { Area = "" });
            }

I know this is how youwould do it if it wasnt in MVC so how could i call my iframe from the controller?

ifr1.Attributes["src"] = "http://localhost:8000/index.php/login/?u=" + Session["username_s"] + "&p=" + Session["password_s"];

enter code here

You should use ViewBag in the target action, passing the URL, for exemple:

1) Your target redirect action should look like:

public ActionResult Index()
{
  //Other code from the action here


  ViewBag.IFrameSrc = "http://localhost:8000/index.php/login/?u=" + Session["username_s"] + "&p=" + Session["password_s"];
  return View();
}

2) The Index View should look like:

<iframe src="@ViewBag.IFrameSrc">

</iframe>

You can use ViewData or ViewBag for this purpose.

In your controller you should have the following:

else
{
    //TODO: add after mobile detection is added back in
    //if (Request.Browser.IsMobileDevice)
    //    return RedirectToAction("Index", "Mobile", new { Area = "" });
    //else

    ViewBag.IframeUrl = "http://localhost:8000/index.php/login/?u=" + Session["username_s"] + "&p=" + Session["password_s"];

    return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home", new { Area = "" });
}

In you View you can use the following:

<iframe src="@(ViewBag.IframeUrl)"></iframe>

You can also use ViewData by replacing ViewBag.IframeUrl with ViewData["IframeUrl"]
