A potentially dangerous Request.Form value was detected from the client

Question

Every time a user posts something containing < or > in a page in my web application, I get this exception thrown.

I don\'t want to go

Answer 1

None of the suggestions worked for me. I did not want to turn off this feature for the whole website anyhow because 99% time I do not want my users placing HTML on web forms. I just created my own work around method since I'm the only one using this particular application. I convert the input to HTML in the code behind and insert it into my database.
