Hi,

I fetch data from database (lots of strings), and display them in an html
table in a web browser. The problem is that some of the data can contain
html, or at least stuff that looks like html, and that confuses the browser.
What can I do so the browser just displays the string exactly as it comes
from the database?

I have looked at UrlEncode, and while this does allow the strings to be
displayed without "problems", things like spaces are replaced with '+' and I
don't want that either.

Thanks,
Peter

Could it be HtmlEncode I am looking for?
