RadEditor with embedded video hangs IE6

[lyn smith]

Hi,

I am using RAd Editor on MVC Application.
All seems fine but I get the following error when I try to submit the page
Validation of viewstate MAC failed. If this application is hosted by a Web Farm or cluster, ensure that <machineKey> configuration specifies the same validationKey and validation algorithm. AutoGenerate cannot be used in a cluster.

I have looked around for the solution and tried all possible solution but nothing seems to work.

Can anyone please suggest how to work around this problem?

Hi Lyn,

You are the first to report this problem and we are not familiar with it. I found the following forum which could be helpful: Validation of viewstate MAC failed, e.g.

the offered solution is to set enableViewStateMac to false in the web.config:

<system.web> 
     <pages enableViewStateMac="false" /> 
</system.web>

If this does not solve the issue, please isolate the problem in a sample working project and send it for examination through a support ticket.

You can also try to replace RadEditor for ASP.NET AJAX with its Telerik Editor for MVC counterpart.

Hi Rumen,

Thanks for the reply. That solved my problem.
But now I have another query.
I have the content of the Rad editor in a database column, but when I am displaying the text it still shows the HTML tags around.

Please find the HTML text displayed

This Note is for%3cstrong%3e%3cspan style%3d%22color%3a %23993399%22%3e Internal Testing%3c/span%3e%3c/strong%3e.

How do I show it in Human readble form? I tried with all possible ways like HTML decode and decode.Or am I missing something?
Also i am using ASP.NET MVC.

Please help me with this problem.

Regards,
Lyn

Hi Lyn,

You should set and get the editor's content through the Content server property as it is shown in this article:
Getting / Setting Content. See this article too: http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/mvc-using-editor.html.

The following forum thread could be helpful for your scenario as well: Get HTML content using Request.Form.
