Hi, I am doing a web pages using MVC but I have encountered a little problem is when I add @Html.Partial("anything", new Model {}) inside my div tag like:

HTML

<div id="dvPartialView">@Html.Partial("anything", new Model {})</div>

An error/red line appear below the Partial syntax states:
System.Web.WebPages.Html.HtmlHelper' does not contain a definition for Partial.....

May I know how can I solve it?

What I have tried:

1. Tried to look for missing namespace in Web.Config but none seems to be missed out.
2. Looked online for solution where I may missing a namespace:

HTML

<add namespace="System.Web.Mvc.Html" />

but did not.

Do you have the namespaces in the web.config in the Views folder? Other issues that can cause this are a mistmatch in versions, where the version of the mvc assemblies referenced in your config file is not the version in the bin folder and there is no suitable bindingRedirect in the web.config.

This stuff should all work out of the box though, create a new MVC app in VisualStudio and see if it works, and if it does compare those config files (all of them) with the one in your own project.

Sir, I have checked through the web.config in Views folder and the namespace indeed is there. Besides, I have compared both the versions of System.Web.Webpages and both are in 3.0.0.0
