Question

I am trying to go through the following tutorial on asp.net. When I get down to this code:

    <%@ Page Language='C#' MasterPageFile='~/Views/Shared/Site.Master' AutoEventWireup='true' CodeBehind='Index.aspx.cs' Inherits='MvcApplication1.Views.Home.Index' %>  <%@ Import Namespace='MvcApplication1.Models' %>  <asp:Content ID='indexContent' ContentPlaceHolderID='MainContent' runat='server'>  <table>  <tr>       <th>Id</th> <th>Title</th> <th>Release Date</th>  </tr>  <% foreach (Movie m in (IEnumerable)ViewData.Model) { %>  <tr>             <td><%= m.Id %></td>       <td><%= Html.Encode(m.Title) %></td>       <td><%= m.DateReleased %></td>  </tr>  <% } %>  </table>  </asp:Content>  

When I type in ViewData it doesn’t show in intellisense as if I am not including a reference or something. Also further down Html.Encode Html doesn’t show in intellisense. What am I doing wrong?

I am using the latest version of MVC.

Try doing a Build on your MVC project. Until the code behind has been compiled for the first time the intellisense won’t work.
