In a list box, when I click on an item, this code puts the selected item on the screen. One of the items reads <All> which put the program in panic and produces the error below:
Question: How can I find the error number for this instance and pacify the error?
try{ Response.Write(lstCity.SelectedItem.Text); } catch (Exception ex){ // *********find the error number when lstCity.SelectedItem.Text == <All> and pacify the error}
Server Error in '/' Application.A potentially dangerous Request.Form value was detected from the client (lstCity="<All>").Description: ASP.NET has detected data in the request that is potentially dangerous because it might include HTML markup or script. The data might represent an attempt to compromise the security of your application, such as a cross-site scripting attack. If this type of input is appropriate in your application, you can include code in a web page to explicitly allow it. For more information, see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=212874.
