Re: Setting HiddenField .Value

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

You can't. The '<' and '>' characters are not legal values in a form field,
or anywhere else in an HTML document except as element brackets. That is why
they are HtmlEncoded when you put the string into the Hidden form field.

Hi,
In my code I'm doing some xml transformation, at the end I receive a
fully transformed html file.
I'm setting the Value property of an hidden field control to have the
content of this html file.

In the debugger I can see that the control contains the value
correctly, however when the page is displayed in a browser all <
symbols are replaced by &lt; .

How can I change this behavior.
Thanks,
Efi
