Unicode to HTML converter/cleaner

[Rob]

Is there a handy .NET call to convert a Unicode string to valid HTML so
sticking in an <pinner HTML? Kind of thing converts "<" to &lt and
multiple spaces to &nbsp etc. I need to display unicode text from a database
on the web page.

Cheers, Rob.

I suppose you need to smth like System.Text.Encoding.Convert and
HttpServerUtility.HtmlEncode methods

Btw, all strings in .NET are unicode ones

If you are using HTML, it's <br>. If you are using XHTML, it's <br/>.

At the risk of extreme pedantry, it's <br />, not <br/>

Yes I'd read that somewhere but then seen many places where the space was
been dropped.

Such as internet standards :-)

Of course you have - the Internet is littered with badly-formed markup...
