Library for Filtering User Input?

Hi!

I'm looking for a library with methods for filtering user input in a
web application. I mean, some API which gives more functionality than
the traditional .NET validation controls.

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot in advance!

If you want to validate or change the input then you could use a
request.filter
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...ilterTopic.asp

It gives you access to the submitted data stream that the browser sends,
giving you a lot of control over the submitted information.

Thanks, but I mean some library which makes your life easier when
filtering user's input and output. This is important for the prevention
of security breaches like cross-site scriptiong. I just can't seem to
put my hand on such an API but there has to be some 3rd party tool that
does that. Anybody knows such one?
