ASP.Net MVC, View @class

I want to put a font awesome beside my link in a side nav bar, i have added this to the _layout view:

<li>@Html.ActionLink("Bookings", "Index", "Booking", new { @class = "fa fa-table" })</li>

It renders fine but the navigation gets messed up and and crashes:

http://localhost:54155/Length=6

why is it giving me lenght=6 ?

I see i am only accessing to the class, but im sure i nedd to include the tag somewhere, but dont know how

You can try the following:

<a href="@Url.Action("Rankings", "Report")"><i class="fa fa-area-chart"></i> Mechanic Ranking</a>

The overload you are using is incorrect - you need to use 

<li>@Html.ActionLink("Mechanic Ranking", "Rankings", "Report", null, new { @class = "fa fa-area-chart" })</li>

MSDN Documentation here.

The reason you are seeing length=6 is that the class is being interpreted as a route value rather than an HTML attribute, due to it being passed in the position of the routevalues parameter rather than the htmlattributes parameter.
