The <%= ... %> syntax has been available in ASP.NET since the platform was first invented. Just like the equivalent syntaxes in PHP, JSP, Classic ASP, and many other platforms, it’s a way to emit dynamic values into the HTML response. But this raises a question of security: if the dynamic value may originally have been supplied by a user, how can you be sure it doesn’t contain any unwanted HTML or malicious JavaScript? The standard way to avoid any such risk is to HTML-encode the value before emitting it, which converts any special characters (e.g., < ) to harmless HTML entities (e.g., &lt; ) that the browser knows to treat as plain text. <%= Html.Encode(ViewData["greeting"]) %> The tricky bit is remembering to write Html.Encode() all the time, especially considering that sometimes you must not encode certain values because they may contain HTML that you do want (e.g., from HTML helper methods like Html.ActionLink() , which already take care of encoding an...

By default, the web server assigns random selected port for localhost. For example, if you have created a web site and you are going to test a page named TestPage.aspx, when you see the URL might be the following. http://localhost:4049/TestPage.aspx Following step are given below to assign a static port for the ASP.NET Development Server 1.      In   the Solution Explorer , right click the name of web site. 1.      In the   Properties   pane, you will find   Use dynamic ports = True , change   Use dynamic ports =False . This will enable editing of the   Port number   property. 2.      In the   Properties   pane, change a   Port number. Now, whenever you run web site with in   Visual Studio Developer , the   ASP.NET Development Server   will listen on the specified port.

We’ll dive in by writing an generic class that represents the delayed (and lazy) computation, Lazy<T>.  Actually it is just a class that will execute a piece of code once somebody asks for the a result. It will also need to cache this result, so that we can enforce that the code is at most executed once. It is pretty easy to represent this in C#: for the ‘piece of code’ that we need to execute, we can use a Func   delegate. We’ll also use generics, since this ‘piece of code’ can return any .NET type. public class Lazy<T> {     private Func<T> func;     private T result;     private bool hasValue;     public Lazy(Func<T> func)     {         this .func = func;         this .hasValue = false ;     }     public T Value     {      ...
