title: Setting the DELETE verb for @Ajax.ActionLink
body: <p>I have a link in ASP.NET MVC that looks like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>@Ajax.ActionLink("Delete", "Delete", new { id = item.Id }, new AjaxOptions { HttpMethod = "DELETE" })
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, when i click it it behaves like a GET link and chrome debugger says this: <code>GET http://localhost:22148/CreditCards/Delete/2001 404 (Not Found)</code></p>
  
  <p>The html that gets generated by the razor template is </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a data-ajax="true" data-ajax-method="DELETE" href="/CreditCards/Delete/2001"&gt;Delete&lt;/a&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It seems to be using html5 to indicate that it should be a delete call. How do I make a delete call happen?</p>
