Introduction: This is a sample application which can be use a smart card for verifying the employee in an organization by comparing his/her image while entering details. For this purpose, the user can use ActionLink to navigate the page to verify the image of the employee. In this case the user will have two different views and with the help of ActionLink, the user will navigate or move from one view to the next view that will be of image.

Steps to develop the Smart Card application in ASP.NET MVC

Step 1: Open visual studio 2010

New>Project
Project>ASP.NET MVC empty web application
Give a name to the application and Click on ok

Step 2: Now the second step will be to add a Model class by right clicking on model and choose class after that name the class.

Now manipulate the code of the class as per the user requirements

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
namespace PCimage.Models
{
    public class P
    {
        public string Name
        {
            get;
            set;
        }
        public int Eid
        {
            get;
            set;
        }
         public string Designation
       {
            get;
            set;
        }
    }
}

Step 3: Now to control the model class and view add controller by performing the following steps.

Choose add controller
Right click on controller folder in solution explorer
Name the controller

Now code the controller according to the requirement

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Mvc;
using PCimage.Models;
namespace PCimage.Controllers
{
    public class CController : Controller
    {
        //
        // GET: /C/
        public ActionResult Index()
        {
            P detials = new P();
             return View(detials);
       }
        public ActionResult Image()
        {
            P detials = new P();
            return View(detials);
        }
    }
}

Step 4: After working on Model and Controller now add view for the action method.

Code the View Index.aspx first
