Html Encode Not Encoding Double Quotes

[Sravan]

In my rad Grid with a Grid Bound Column, If I have data for the Class Description like " Classes with capacity > 20 are considered as "full"" 

<telerik:GridBoundColumn UniqueName="ClassDescription" HeaderText="Class Description" HeaderStyle-Font-Bold="true"
                DataField="ClassDescription" HtmlEncode="true">
            </telerik:GridBoundColumn>

.When I use HtmlEncode="true" property for rad grid column, it is encoding  > with > but not encoding the double quotes ("full"). 
When I tried using HttpContext.Current.Server.HtmlEncode in the server side it  is encoding > to > and double quotes("full") to "full" successfully but HtmlEncode is not doing the same. 
How to fix this.

Hello Sravan,

In order to resolve your issue you could use the provided code below. The idea is to subscribe to RadGrid ItemDataBound event and manually encode there. The reason for the experienced behavior is the HtmlEncode internally uses System.Web.HttpUtility.HtmlEncode method instead of Server.HtmlEncode.

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{
    GridDataItem dataItem = e.Item as GridDataItem;
    if (dataItem != null)
    {
        dataItem["Name"].Text = Server.HtmlEncode(dataItem["Name"].Text);
    }
}

All the best,
