'Usage
Dim instance As PagesSection
Dim value As Boolean
value = instance.ValidateRequest
instance.ValidateRequest = value
'Declaration
<ConfigurationPropertyAttribute("validateRequest", DefaultValue := True)> _
Public Property ValidateRequest As Boolean
Property Value
Type:
System..::.Boolean
true if ASP.NET examines input from the browser for dangerous values; otherwise, false. The default value is true.
Request validation is performed by comparing all input data to a list of potentially dangerous values. If a match occurs, ASP.NET raises an HttpRequestValidationException.
The following code example shows how to use the ValidateRequest property.
' Get the current ValidateRequest property value.
Console.WriteLine( _
"Current ValidateRequest value: '{0}'", _
pagesSection.ValidateRequest)
' Set the ValidateRequest property to true.
pagesSection.ValidateRequest = True
