Question

The following code snippet is causing a compilation error that I am unable to pinpoint. I tried removing the 2 from the last brace. I tried the AntiForgery without braces – no luck.

The error is CS1501: No overload for method ‘Write’ takes 0 arguments

Any suggestions?

<div id="header-wrapper">
    <div id="header">
        <div id="menu-wrapper">
            @if (Page.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated){
                @Html.Telerik().Menu().Name("mainnav").BindTo("main").Effects(x => x.Toggle())
            }     
        </div>
        @if (Page.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated){
            <form action="@Url.Action("Logoff", "Account")" id="formLogout" method="POST">
                @{ Html.AntiForgeryToken(); }
                <a href="" id="logout" onclick="$('#formLogout').submit();return false;"></a>
            </form>
        @}
        <div id="subnav"></div>
    </div>
</div>

Answer 1

Try replacing:

@{ Html.AntiForgeryToken(); }

with:

@Html.AntiForgeryToken()

(and remove the @ from your if closing brace)

Code should be:

@if (Page.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated) {
  <form action="@Url.Action("Logoff", "Account")" id="formLogout" method="POST">
    @Html.AntiForgeryToken()
    <a href="" id="logout" onclick="$('#formLogout').submit();return false;"></a>
  </form>
}
