Question

I know that I can use normal html files in ASP.NET MVC; however I have a situation where several (above 20) html files are needed for static display. This is fine and good, but I really don’t want it cluttering the MVC project since none of them will have controller actions.

Is there any way to load up a second project and use static html files from it, within ASP.NET MVC?

Answer 1

I know my answer is not directly related to your question as you are asking how to access HTML pages from a second project. But an alternate would be to place the html files in your content directory. This way you could catalog your static html pages

For Instance:

MVC Directory Structure
   Content
     images
       logo.png
     script
       utility.js
     staticHtml
       static.html
       static2.html
   Model
   Views
