Global name 'RegistrationForm' is not defined

def register_page(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        form = RegistrationForm(request.POST)
        if form.is_valid():
            user = User.objects.creat_user(
                username=form.clean_data['username'],
                password=form.clean_data['password1'],
                email=form.clean_data['email']
                )
            return HttpResponseRedirect('/accounts/register/success/')
    else:
        form = RegistrationForm()
    variables = RequestContext(request, {'form': form})
    return render_to_response ('registration/register.html',variables)

When I run server, this error appears:

global name 'RegistrationForm' is not defined
Request Method: GET
Request URL:    http://127.0.0.1:8000/accounts/register/
Django Version: 1.4
Exception Type: NameError
Exception Value:    
global name 'RegistrationForm' is not defined
Exception Location: D:\Python\Scripts\littlesite\messageboard\views.py in register_page, line 31
Python Executable:  D:\Python\python.exe
Python Version: 2.7.2

Can anybody tell me what is wrong with it? Thanks.

You didn't import the RegistrationForm. In order to use it, you need to import it into your current namespace.

In case you're using django-registration, use the following import:

from registration.forms import RegistrationForm

If it's a custom form, import it from where you have defined it.
