Hi Andreas,

To me it looks like the web.config in your /Views folder doesn't contain the references required to access @Html...

Could you post that file? and I'll compare to my working example.

Thanks.

Sure:

Wrong file...

This looks like the web.config from the root of your application - i need to take a look at the one in the Views folder.

Sorry, here it is:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<!--
    Enabling request validation in view pages would cause validation to occur
    after the input has already been processed by the controller. By default
    MVC performs request validation before a controller processes the input.
    To change this behavior apply the ValidateInputAttribute to a
    controller or action.
-->
<pages
    validateRequest="false"
    pageParserFilterType="System.Web.Mvc.ViewTypeParserFilter, System.Web.Mvc, Version=5.2.3.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"
    pageBaseType="System.Web.Mvc.ViewPage, System.Web.Mvc, Version=5.2.3.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"
    userControlBaseType="System.Web.Mvc.ViewUserControl, System.Web.Mvc, Version=5.2.3.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35">
  <controls>
    <add assembly="System.Web.Mvc, Version=5.2.3.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" namespace="System.Web.Mvc" tagPrefix="mvc" />
  </controls>
</pages>

<handlers>
  <remove name="BlockViewHandler"/>
  <add name="BlockViewHandler" path="*" verb="*" preCondition="integratedMode" type="System.Web.HttpNotFoundHandler" />
</handlers>

Could you try add:

@using System.Web.Mvc

To the top of the file.

Thanks. Darren.

Hi Darren

Thanks, whis may be part of the solution, but there are still a couple of issues.

1. I no longer seem to have access to the @Model object - which is not critical to me.

2. I seem to get the same error (see below) everytime @Html.Raw is used:

Best regards, Andreas

Hi Darren

Sure, here it is:

[NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.] ASP.PdfHelper.

Could you send me your PdfHelper.cshtml to my email address darren at moriyama.co.uk?
