ValidateRequest="false" doesn't work when posting HTML values
- by Ivan90
I am developing a personal blog in ASP.NET MVC 1.0. This blog application has Views like "Insert Post", "Edit Post", etc. I need to post a string containing HTML back to the appropriate controller method. That HTML value is being posted from a textarea.
I've read that it's necessary to disable ValidateRequest directly on the page with the attribute ValidateRequest = "false" or in the web.config file.
When I insert an HTML value in my textarea, I get always the error of 'potential value dangerous'.
How can I use ValidateRequest to allow the form element containing HTML values to be posted?
