I’m getting an HttpRequestValidationexception with this error message:

“A potentially dangerous Request.Form value was detected from the client”.

But I have AllowHtml on the property that I’m getting the error. The problem is that later in my code I’m getting the following property to know in witch format I will show my view ControllerContext.HttpContext.Request.Params.AllKeys.Contains("format"). And on this “Param Getter” I’m getting the error.

Let’s say my code is similar to the following:

public class House
{
    [AllowHtml]
    public string Text { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }
}

[HttpPost, ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public ActionResult CreateTopic(House h)
{
 //business code
 if(ControllerContext.HttpContext.Request.Params.AllKeys.Contains("format"))
 {
    Return view;
 }
 }

How can I solve this? I already try with the ValidateInput(false) attribute on the controller action method. Any idea?
