HtmlEncode Method (value, output)

.NET Components for Mobility

Converts a string into an HTML-encoded string, and returns the output as a TextWriter stream of output.

Declaration Syntax

C#	Visual Basic

public static void HtmlEncode(
	string value,
	TextWriter output
)

Public Shared Sub HtmlEncode ( _
	value As String, _
	output As TextWriter _
)

Parameters

value (String): The string to encode.

output (TextWriter): A TextWriter output stream.

Remarks

If characters such as blanks and punctuation are passed in an HTTP stream, they might be misinterpreted at the receiving end. HTML encoding converts characters that are not allowed in HTML into character-entity equivalents; HTML decoding reverses the encoding. For example, when embedded in a block of text, the characters < and > are encoded as < and > for HTTP transmission.
