How in asp.net mvc create link that refer to some model.property?

I have strong-type view, I want to create link that refers to Model, which is strong-typed with that view, some property (e.g Model.property). How can I do that? I use net4.0. when I write "> it do nothing. Even visual studio don't recognize it when I write < a href="<%: and click ctrl+space it doesn't bring anything. This is my view 

<%@ Page Language="C#" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewPage<UrlParser.Models.Parse>" %>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >
<head runat="server">
    <title>Show</title>
</head>
<body>
    <h1> Title: </h1>
    <%: Model.title %>
    <br />
    <h1> Description: </h1>
    <%: Model.description %>
    <% if(!Model.video.Equals("")) { %>
    <h2> Video:</h2>
    <%: Model.video %>
    <a href="<%: Model.video %>"> </a>
    <% } %>

</body>
</html>

I want my link refer to Model.video.

These is my controler:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Mvc;
using UrlParser.Models;

namespace UrlParser.Controllers
{
    public class HomeController : Controller
    {
        //
        // GET: /Home/

        [HttpGet]
        public ActionResult Index()
        {
            return View();
        }

        [HttpPost]
        public ActionResult Index(GetUrl getUrl)
        {
           // int i = 0;
            Parse prs = new Parse(getUrl.url);
            return View("Show", prs);
        }

    }
}

Not sure i follow you 100% but it looks like you might have your view defined without your model like:

 <%@ Page Language="C#" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewPage" %>

And you will need something like this:

<%@ Page Language="C#" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewPage<MyViewModel>" %>

The key above is the MyViewModel which is you view model. This should have all your properties; MyViewModel.Video.

The following link was just missing the link text.

    <a href="<%: Model.video %>"> </a>

when you added something in between the and the it made the link visible.
