Try something like this

C#

@Ajax.ActionLink("Search", "datalist", new { name = getTextBoxContent()}, new AjaxOptions { UpdateTargetId = "listbx", InsertionMode = InsertionMode.Replace} )
 
<div id="listbx">@{ Html.RenderAction("datalist", "Home"); }</div>

<script type="text/javascript">
function getTextBoxContent() {
    return document.getElementById('myTextBoxId').value;
}
</script>
