'string' does not contain a definition for 'AssafeHtml'

Question

User311495996 posted

I followed this tutorial:http://www.mikesdotnetting.com/article/159/webmatrix-protecting-your-web-pages-site

created a new folder named "App_Code"

and created a new file named "HtmlSanitizer.cs", placed some c# code in it, including public of AssafeHtml

after that I created a new file to display a column in the database, codes like below:

@{   
    var db=Database.Open("database name");
    var sql= db.QuerySingle("SELECT *  from test order by id desc");
    var qq= sql.columnname;
    var qqq= new HtmlString(qqq.ToString().AssafeHtml());
}

<h1>@qqq</h1>

When I run it in browser, the yellow screen of death is appeared.

It mention me:

'string' does not contain a definition for 'AssafeHtml'

How can I do?

thanks for your help!

string qqq = new HtmlString(qq.AssafeHtml());

Or

var qqq = new HtmlString(((string)qq).AssafeHtml());
