    Trying to make a document download link

    So I'm trying to make a template that will allow my editors to upload something like a registration form that users can download. I am using the media picker to specify which file should be associated with the download link but I'm having trouble getting the url. I have this code in the Template:

    var typedMediaPickerSingle = Model.Value<IPublishedContent>("registrationForm");
if (typedMediaPickerSingle != null)
{
<p>@typedMediaPickerSingle.Url</p>
    <a href="@typedMediaPickerSingle.Url" >Registration Form</a>
}

    but it errors out: "CS0103: The name 'typedMediaPickerSingle' does not exist in the current context"

    What am I doing wrong here?

    Hi AsheM

    It's just a guess but is your declaration of the variable outside of a code block? 

    @{
var typedMediaPickerSingle = Model.Value<IPublishedContent>("registrationForm");
}
@if (typedMediaPickerSingle != null)
{
<p>@typedMediaPickerSingle.Url</p>
    <a href="@typedMediaPickerSingle.Url" >Registration Form</a>
}

    does the above make a difference?

    regards

    Marc
