Controller Doubled on URL (ASP MVC 2)

I have a form tag using Url.Action on my FormUser view:

<form class="form-horizontal" action="..<%: Url.Action(ViewData("FormMode"), "Master") %>" method="post">
     {some form code}
</form>

the ViewData("FormMode") is generated on my controller whether it's edit or create new. Here's my Master controller code:

Function FormAddUser() As ActionResult
        ViewData("AreaMenu") = sideBarModel.createLineMenu
        ViewData("RoleOption") = RoleOption()
        ViewData("FormMode") = "i_AddUser"
        Return View("Form_User")
    End Function

    Function EditUser() As ActionResult
        ViewData("AreaMenu") = sideBarModel.createLineMenu
        ViewData("ReadOnly") = "readonly"
        ViewData("FormMode") = "u_UpdateUser"
        ViewData("RoleOption") = RoleOption()

        Dim dt_user As DataTable = masterCommand.get_UserDetail(Request.QueryString("id"))

        For Each dr As DataRow In dt_user.Rows
            ViewData("v_UserName") = dr("User_Name")
            ViewData("v_Role") = dr("ID_Role")
        Next

        Return View("Form_User")
    End Function

if I'm calling the FormAddUser function, the submit button will have correct URL action, that is

../Master/i_AddUser

but if i try to call the EditUser function, which is by using this URL pattern

../Master/EditUser/?id=Alex

The submit button on the form will doubling the Master

../Master/Master/u_UpdateUser

I tried to configure the URL pattern using this

routes.MapRoute( _
            "EditUser", _
            "{controller}/{action}/{*id}", _
            New With {.controller = "Master", .action = "EditUser", .id = UrlParameter.Optional}
        )

but it seems not working. What can I do? I'm using MVC 2. Thanks in advance

You probably need to cast ViewData as String before calling Url helper.

Url.Action(ViewData("formmode").ToString(), "Master")

Otherwise is going to return Object at runtime.
