I think you are attacking it from the wrong angle by trying to encode all posted data.
Note that a "<
" could also come from other outside sources, like a database field, a configuration, a file, a feed and so on.
Furthermore, "<
" is not inherently dangerous. It's only dangerous in a specific context: when writing strings that haven't been encoded to HTML output (because of XSS).
In other contexts different sub-strings are dangerous, for example, if you write an user-provided URL into a link, the sub-string "javascript:
" may be dangerous. The single quote character on the other hand is dangerous when interpolating strings in SQL queries, but perfectly safe if it is a part of a name submitted from a form or read from a database field.
The bottom line is: you can't filter random input for dangerous characters, because any character may be dangerous under the right circumstances. You should encode at the point where some specific characters may become dangerous because they cross into a different sub-language where they have special meaning. When you write a string to HTML, you should encode characters that have special meaning in HTML, using Server.HtmlEncode. If you pass a string to a dynamic SQL statement, you should encode different characters (or better, let the framework do it for you by using prepared statements or the like)..
When you are sure you HTML-encode everywhere you pass strings to HTML, then set ValidateRequest="false"
in the <%@ Page ... %>
directive in your .aspx
file(s).
In .NET 4 you may need to do a little more. Sometimes it's necessary to also add <httpRuntime requestValidationMode="2.0" />
to web.config (reference).
An UpdatePanel completely replaces the contents of the update panel on an update. This means that those events you subscribed to are no longer subscribed because there are new elements in that update panel.
What I've done to work around this is re-subscribe to the events I need after every update. I use $(document).ready()
for the initial load, then use Microsoft's PageRequestManager
(available if you have an update panel on your page) to re-subscribe every update.
$(document).ready(function() {
// bind your jQuery events here initially
});
var prm = Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManager.getInstance();
prm.add_endRequest(function() {
// re-bind your jQuery events here
});
The PageRequestManager
is a javascript object which is automatically available if an update panel is on the page. You shouldn't need to do anything other than the code above in order to use it as long as the UpdatePanel is on the page.
If you need more detailed control, this event passes arguments similar to how .NET events are passed arguments (sender, eventArgs)
so you can see what raised the event and only re-bind if needed.
Here is the latest version of the documentation from Microsoft: msdn.microsoft.com/.../bb383810.aspx
A better option you may have, depending on your needs, is to use jQuery's .on()
. These method are more efficient than re-subscribing to DOM elements on every update. Read all of the documentation before you use this approach however, since it may or may not meet your needs. There are a lot of jQuery plugins that would be unreasonable to refactor to use .delegate()
or .on()
, so in those cases, you're better off re-subscribing.

This is the reason
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.sessionstate.httpsessionstate.sessionid.aspx
So basically, unless you access your session object on the backend, a new sessionId will be generated with each request
EDIT
This code must be added on the file Global.asax. It adds an entry to the Session object so you fix the session until it expires.
