I've written an app to parse an XML RSS feed. Some of the content in that
RSS feed has entities properly encoded for XML, e.g.:
UW's Hawes To Enter NBA Draft
High school's 'No-shush' to retire
My app reads the content using XmlDocument/XmlNodeList and then commits
selected pieces to my DB.
I want to know the best/easiest/most reliable/most complete way to translate
entities that are escaped as in the example above and convert them to normal
characters or entities. Am I stuck writing a translation function, or is
there a .NET class or method set that I can plug into?
Thanks,

Microsoft's free Anti-Cross Site Scripting Library provides superb encoding
and decoding functionality: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/security/aa973814.aspx

Hi,
I read that ASP.NET uses VB.NET instead of VBScript. I also read that
ASP.NET is a subset of VB.NET. So if I learn VB.NET first then do I have the
knowledge for programming ASP.NET applications or do I need to learn both
VB.NET and ASP.NET.
Thank you.

Hi all,
I'm searching for a few good books on asp.net and c#. I'm afraid of buying
books here in denmark that i cant read though before i get them, becuase 90%
of them are just pure junk. I dont need 3 chapters on object oriented
programming or c# inside a asp.net book.
Looking mainly for reference books or tactics books that would cover all
aspects of asp.net, like security, controls, session managment, web.config
and so on.

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.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Overview:
Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
