Incomplete question. What you are trying to say, please elaborate your question. and also provide some code snippets..about what you are trying to do.

This happens because there is a bug in your code; the solution is to fix the bug. Now, if you explained exactly what your code is doing, we may be able to help you with that solution.

I think what he is trying to say is he inserts '<name>' into the database from a textbox in a form and while viewing the data the textbox doesnt display '<name>'. This is most probably an issue with htmlencoding but dont want to keep guessing anymore :D, this is about the limit...

Solution 2

that is because string < name > is interpreted by browser as html tag. So before saving data to your data store OR before displaying you have to Htmlencode it. Please refer... http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/w3te6wfz.aspx[^]
