HttpRequestValidationexception on Asp.Net MVC
- by elranu
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?
