Just started MVC 2.0. There are built in views. In home there are two view. Index.aspx and about.aspx. I am creating a new folder in Views named customer and create a new page "Customer.aspx" with some text to show. Menu item is created but not going into the page.

Here what i am trying.

<div id="menucontainer">

            <ul id="menu">              
                <li><%: Html.ActionLink("Home", "Index", "Home")%></li>
                <li><%: Html.ActionLink("About", "About", "Home")%></li>
                <li><%: Html.ActionLink("Customer", "CustomerDataAdd", "Customer")%></li>
            </ul>
        </div>

Answer 1

You will need to create a new Controller class called Customer with a method called CustomerDataAdd that will return the newly created CustomerDataAdd view.

public class Customer : Controller
{
    public ActionResult CustomerDataAdd()
    {
        return View();
    }
}

Answer 2

Are you sure you have CustomerDataAdd action in your Customer controller? There is nothing wrong in your HTML code.

public class Customer : Controller
{
    public ActionResult CustomerDataAdd()
    {
        return View();
    }
}
