Hi,
I have a web form containing a TextBox that allows users to edit XML files.
When the page is posted, the changes are saved. This worked fine until the
ValidateRequest 'feature' came along in .Net 1.1
Now, I've been told that it can be disabled using the 'ValidateReques t'
attribute (of Page). This works on 1.1 and is fine since I always encode and
check my strings manually to ensure no malicious script can be submitted.
The problem is that our web app is distributed to various clients. When they
have 1.1 installed, everything's fine. But most of them are still on the 1.0
Framework. When they access that web form, they receive this error message :
The 'ValidateReques t' attribute is not supported by the 'page' directive.
Now, I've been looking everywhere on how to handle this. I can't believe I'm
the only one facing this problem. I just can't go and tell my clients to
add/remove this attribute in the .aspx source. What is the solution? Is
there a way to programmaticall y set the validateRequest attribute of a Page?
What I would like to do is check the version of the framework and add
validateRequest = False if I'm running on .Net 1.1... help!
Regards,
Shaun.

Your not alone ... I have run into various problems with Caching, webcontrol
buttons and much more that simply don't work in the 1.0 framework and only
somewhat work now in 1.1. It is very frustrating and if you find a
solution, please also let me know.

Hello Experts,
If the contents of a text box containing a html tag like formmated
characters, i.e. <hello>, and if the validateRequest is set to true, it
gives an error when post back: A potentially dangerous Request.Form
value was detected from the client. Just wondering what are the
drawbacks if the validateRequest is set to true? Under what situations
should the validateRequest set to true or false?
Thanks,

I have a specific page that I have chosen to disable the .NET 1.1 validateRequest options by setting the page directive attribute of "validateRequest" from true to false. I manually validate all controls within this page. This page includes a UserControl which contains a textbox. It appears that the validateRequest attribute is not propagated to the usercontrol when the page is processed. This results in the standard "potentially dangerous"...

Hi,
I have one textbox on the form that needs to have ValidateRequest disabled,
but it seems that it can only be enabled/disabled at a page level.
assuming I have to disable it at for the whole page, how can I invoke
ValidateRequest functionality for the other text boxes individually? I was
looking for some kind of method on I can call that says "validate this
control as if ValidateRequest were true" or a function "would this string...

represents the "ValidateRequest" attribute on the @Page element.
There must be some property that the PageParser knows what to do when when
parsing ValidateRequest. I couldn't find any information about this.
Besides, it seems only can be declared on the html, and .config.
What if i am a control author and want to disable ValidateRequest for

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
