Right. I tested it by surrounding my input with <b> and </b>. To my surprise, it causes an unhandled exception: A potentially dangerous Request.Form value was detected from the client (ctl00$ContentPlaceHolder1$description="<b>Property1</b>").

Yes, that is ASP.NET's standard response to this sort of thing... By default, it considers posting of HTML as *potentially* dangerous, as Jesse correctly explained...

You have several options here, depending on what you're trying to do...

Can you explain a bit more about what is and, more importantly, what is not valid data in this case...
