pageValidate equivalent for ascx control?

[howboutafresca]

I'm in a bit of a pickle. I'm dealing with a web portal that uses a
single aspx file at the top, which dynamically loads ascx controls
into it. On one of these controls I have a textbox that I'd like to
enter html codes into.

Problem-- every time I try submitting the page I get the warning
message that I may be posting unsafe data. I'd like to set things so
there is no validation from the ascx file. I cannot set the
pageValidate attribute, because it's an ascx file I'm dealing with and
I don't want to set that for what amounts to the entire portal.

I'm using .Net 1.1. Is there a way to at least htmlencode my textbox
before the page is submitted? I can't find a way around my quandry,
and any help is appreciated!

Hello ho************@gmail.com,

could you post the exact error u get?

I suppose it's because your html, which u are trying to insert is not encoded.
I'd try to use HttpUtility.HtmlEncode to encode insterted text
