Online National Polling System
ABSTRACT
• The word “vote” means to choose from a list, to elect or to determine. The main goal of voting (in a scenario involving the citizens of a given country) is to come up with leaders of the people’s choice.
• Most countries, India not an exception have problems when it comes to voting. Some of the problems involved include ridging votes during election, insecure or inaccessible polling stations, inadequate polling materials and also inexperienced personnel.
• This online voting/polling system seeks to address the above issues. It should be noted that with this system in place, the users, citizens in this case shall be given ample time during the voting period. They shall also be trained on how to vote online before the election time

INTRODUCTION TO ONLINE VOTING
SYSTEM
• “ONLINE VOTING SYSTEM” is an online voting website. In this system
people who have citizenship of India and whose age is above 18 years of age and any sex can give his\her vote online without going to any physical polling station. There is a database which is maintained in which all the names of voters with complete information is stored.
• In “ONLINE VOTING SYSTEM” a voter can use his\her voting right online without any difficulty. He\She has to be registered first for him/her to vote. Registration is mainly done by the system administrator for security reasons. The system Administrator registers the voters on a special site of the system visited by him only by simply filling a registration form to register voter. Citizens seeking registration are expected to contact the system administrator to submit their details. After the validity of them being citizens of India has been confirmed by the system administrator by comparing their details submitted with those in existing databases such as those as the Registrar of Persons, the citizen is then registered as a voter.

Project justification
• The ONLINE VOTING SYSTEM-INDIA shall reduce the
time spend making long queues at the polling stations during voting.
• It shall also enable the voters to vote from any part of the globe as explained since this is an online application available on the internet.
• . Cases of vote miscounts shall also be solved since at the backend of this system resides a well developed database using MYSQL that can provide the correct data once it’s correctly queried.

Technologies Used:
• Server Side : Java(JDK1.8),Servlet, JSP2.0, EL, JSTL
• Client Side : HTML5, CSS
• Database : MySQL 5.0
• Framework : Jakarta Struts Framework(Struts Tiles framework).
• IDE : NetBeans 7.4, Dreamweaver8, MySQL GUI Tool5.0

J2EE Architecture • J2EE multi-tiered
applications are generally considered to be three-tiered applications because they are distributed over three different locations ▫ client machines
▫ the J2EE server machine
▫ the database or legacy machines at the back end

Struts Framework:MVC The MVC design pattern consists of three modules model, view and controller. Model The model represents the state (data) and business logic of the application. View The view module is responsible to display data i.e. it represents the presentation. Controller The controller module acts as an interface between view and model.

JDBC:Java Database Connectivity
Java code calls JDBC library
JDBC loads a driver
Driver talks to a particular database
Can have more than one driver -> more than one database
Ideal: can change database engines without changing any application code
Application JDBC Driver

JSP:Java Server Pages
• JSP technology is used to create web application just like Servlet technology. It can be thought of as an extension to servlet because it provides more functionality than servlet such as expression language, jstl etc.
• A JSP page consists of HTML tags and JSP tags. The jsp pages are easier to maintain than servlet because we can separate designing and development. It provides some additional features such as Expression Language, Custom Tag etc.
• Advantage of JSP over Servlet:
1. Extension to Servlet
2. Easy to maintain
3. Fast Development: No need to recompile and redeploy
4. Less code than Servlet

Struts :Tiles Framework
• A web page can contain many parts (known as tile) such as header, left pane, right pane, body part, footer etc. In tiles framework, we manage all the tile by ourLayout Manager page.
• Advantage of tiles framework
• There are following advantages of tiles framework:
• Customization by centralized page We can customize the layout of all the pages by single page (centralized page) only.
• Code reusability A single part e.g. header or footer can be used in many pages. So it saves coding.
• Easy to modify If any part (tile) is modified, we don't need to change many pages.
• Easy to remove If any part (tile) of the page is removed, we don't need to remove the code from all the pages. We can remove the tile from our layout manager page.

Tiles framework:continue……
Steps to create tiles application The steps are as follows:
•Add tiles library in your application •Define Struts2TilesListener in web.xml file •Create the input page (index.jsp) •Create the Action class •Extend the tiles-default package in your package and define all the result type as tiles in struts.xml file •Create the tiles.xml file and define all the tiles definitions •Create the LayoutManager page •Create the View components
