Hello,

I am wondering if there is a specific site/page that would show how to scan
input from a textfield and look for and convert certian characters in too
special html code.

TIA

You can do that with the String .Replace() method. Can you show a short
sample of what you're looking to do?

Thanks for replying so quickly.

The example text input would be like this:

The stories of stem cell research <a
href="http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20050523/ap_on_go_co/congress_stem_cells">I
s Heating Up in DC</a>; but in New York<a
href="http://www.nytimes.com/2005/05/23/nyregion/23stem.html">Cities get
monies for research</a>


Replacing <> with &lt; and &gt;

TIA

If it's ASP.NET app you can user Server.HTMLEncode() for this purpose. If
it's not ASP.NET you should be able to import required namespace where
server object lives.

Larry,

The data is being stored in an xml file..so I need it to be in special html
code to be rendered from xsl file on page load.
