What's the C# variant of html_ entity_ decode()  and htmlentities() ?

Hi,

I think you're looking for

Server.HtmlDecode method and the Server.HtmlEncode method.

Grz, Kris.

Thank you Kris

Do you know also a way to parse html into the database from a textbox ? Because now I get an application error that there is an attempt to hacking en bla bla bla ... . So I taught I decode the text into html variants (like in PHP) ... but that doesn't work

Ah ok, I see the problem, or at least I think I do .

ASP.NET by nature has some security settings enabled by default that prevent XSS attacks on your webserver. You can however turn this off, so you can insert html elements in your textbox, by setting the ValidateRequest property of the page to false. I encourage you to do this only on pages where you need admin privileges so that not everyone can start typing in stuff to bring down your site.

Grz, Kris.
