HTML encoding method?

hello,

i need to do some HTML encoding on some strings. not UrlEncoding, mind
you, but HTML encoding. ie:

"&" to "&"
"<" to "<"

...etc. does anyone know of a good way to do this, other than manual
string replacements? what of decoding back into plain text?

thanks,
mattHttpServerUtility.HtmlEncode() is what you're looking for. Here's MS
documentation on it:

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/w3te6wfz.aspx
I just googled [.NET + HTMLEncode] and got over 200,000 links on this... the
above is just one of them
