    Disable request validation

    Hi Guys

    I'm battling a rather irritating problem. We're posting some html through a form, but the handling of that form returns "potentially dangerous request" since it contains markup.

    I have tried to disable request validation in the web.config without any effect.

    I've tried the following line in the razor-script that renders the piece of xslt that actually handles the post. 



    @{    
  ((umbraco.UmbracoDefault)HttpContext.Current.CurrentHandler).ValidateRequest = false;
}

    That results in an error; Cannot cast 'Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoMvcHandler' to type 'umbraco.UmbracoDefault'.

    I've tried doing it with a bit of c# in my actionhandler.xslt that handles the post:

       <msxml:script language="C#" implements-prefix="user">
            <![CDATA[
      void DisableRequestValidation() {
        ((umbraco.UmbracoDefault)HttpContext.Current.CurrentHandler).ValidateRequest = false;
      }
      ]]>
        </msxml:script>

     

    I've looked at this post here: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:oBdv2c0PCuIJ:eitherxor.retox-1.titaninternet.co.uk/blog/disabling-request-validation-in-umbraco/+&cd=4&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us

    I can't seem to get it turned off so that I can get my hands on the postet markup.

    Any hints and help is greatly appreciated!

    Hi Niels

    Have you tried if this works on 6.1.6 http://www.proworks.com/blog/2013/11/10/disabling-request-validation-in-umbraco-cms/ ?

    EDIT: Or how about this? http://our.umbraco.org/forum/developers/api-questions/5533-setting-ValidateRequest-in-umbraco#comment21291

    Tried the first one with no luck.. But maybe there's something I'm not sseing.

    Tried the second one in different variations in the .cshtml file rendering the xslt-actionhandler. But that results in

    Cannot convert type 'System.Dynamic.DynamicObject' to 'umbraco.UmbracoDefault'
