Pass image from controller and display in a view using ViewBag in ASP.NET MVC 3

Question

I guess it\'s something very straight forward but I can\'t find out how to do it. In my controller I have:

 public ViewResult ShowForm()
        {
                   


        

Answer 1

Use Server.MapPath to get the correct path of the image. Suppose your images folder is inside the Content folder that is normally included in an MVC project. You can do something like this:

public ViewResult ShowForm()
{
    //Logo
    ViewBag.Logo = Server.MapPath("~") + @"Content\Images\Logo.png";
    return View("ShowForm");
}

And you don't have to change the code in your view.
