  Help with reCaptcha

  Nov 10, 2011 04:23 PM|LINK

  I get the following error when clicking on the 'Register' button:

  Compiler Error Message: CS0103: The name 'ReCaptcha' does not exist in the current context
  
  Source Error:
  
  

  Line 24: Line 25: // Validate the user's captcha answer Line 26: if (!ReCaptcha.Validate("6LcY9skSAAAAAE-T_1zvhSrnxP2J2z5_dHcBhoBv")) {  Line 27: captchaMessage = "Captcha response was not correct"; Line 28: isValid = false; line 29: }

  Can anyone help a WebMatrix NewBe with this problem?

  can you check whether you have Microsoft.Web.Helpers.dll included in your website project?

   

  if you don't have this assembly in your website project

  you can try following steps

  1. create a empty site from template

  2. go to bin folder to add existing file Microsoft.Web.Helpers.dll

   

  you can find this file if you create a site with Bakery template

  You don't have to copy binaries around. That's what the package manager is for :)

  Go to _admin on your site, search for microsoft-web-helpers and install the package.

  +1 on making sure that the Helpers package is installed.

  Also, check whether you need to qualify the reference, either with a using statement:

  @using Microsoft.Web.Helpers;

  Or just by using a fully qualified name, e.g.

  if(! Microsoft.Web.Helpers.ReCaptcha.Validate ...)

  Update (thanks to PranavKM): In WebMatrix, you should not need the using statement to import the Microsoft.Web.Helpers namespace. I found I needed to do that in Visual Web Developer Express, but not in WebMatrix. Sorry for the confusion.

  Go to _admin on your site

  Or (possibly easier to follow...) if you have at least one page in your site, click the Site workspace selector in the left hand panel of WebMatrix, and then click the ASP.NET Web Pages Administration link. That will take you to the Package Manager.
