Prevent HTML Markup in Grid Column

[Temp]

Is there an easy way for me to prevent html markup showing in grid columns?
I would like to server.htmlencode the contents of the field I guess.

Hi Temp,


You can put it in the ItemDataBound event handler. The ItemDataBound event is raised when a data item is bound to data in the RadGrid control. This allows you to provide an event-handling method that performs a custom routine, such as modifying the values of the data bound to the item, whenever this event occurs. 

I have prepared especially for you a sample application which represents how to modify the text in appropriate columns
Please review the code in the project for further details, and let me know if you need further assistance.

Dear Sir,

Is there a better way to make it?
I want to encode html markup in grid column, too.  However, I have already used RadGrid in lots of pages.  Moreover,  it seems to write codes in ItemDataBound event handler for each column......

Suggestion:
Is possible radGrid to provide a property, such as "EncodeHTMLMarkupInColumn"...
If the property is true, all the content will be encoded?

Thank you

Dear Sir,

It seems GridView server control support what I said

<asp:GridView ID="grvResult" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False" Width="100%">

    <Columns>

        <asp:BoundField HeaderText="OperationDate" DataField="OperationDate"  HtmlEncode="True">

        </asp:BoundField>     

        <asp:BoundField HeaderText="TotalRate" DataField="TotalRate"  HtmlEncode="True">

        </asp:BoundField>

    </Columns>

</asp:GridView>

Hello Jason,

HtmlEncode property to GridBoundColumn will be added for the Q3 2008 release, expected at the beginning of November. I hope this is good news for you.

Kind regards,

HI Jason,

I am having the same problem for the RadComboBox, where all the HTML is displaying encoded. For example '&' is displaying as '&amp;'.

Any ideas?

Thanks
Phil

Hello Phillip,

You can use HtmlDecode method in such cases.
