Editor: German special characters converted into html special characters

Feraud

Hi,

when persisting a string in German like this "100 Stück" (= 100 pieces) the persisted string is 100 Stück. I am searching for way to tell to tell the editor or whatever object it needs not to do this conversion. Sql-Server data column is NVARCHAR and can persist German special characters.

I am using C# / WebApi 2 / Sql Server. Any idea?

Thank you!

Right now, I am using a workaround by manually converting the html-encoded string like

result.Content.data[0]["Comment"] = WebUtility.HtmlDecode(result.Content.data[0]["Comment"].ToString());

But it feels like a workaround. I'd prefer some options to set somewhere.

Hi,

Do you mean that when you write it to the database it is being automatically HTML entity encoded? Try adding .Xss(false) to the field definition. I suspect that might be caused by the Microsoft XSS filter.
