User-friendly xml sensitization library that html encodes invalid parts of user submissions?

I would like to allow my users to submit a subset of xhtml that will be displayed to other users (likely I'll build a schema for it) but I want the server to handle validation more gracefully then hard rejecting invalid submissions. Instead I'd like the server to Html Encode invalid/harmful parts of the submissions (sanitize javascript and css etc.).

Is there any library (maybe asp.net mvc 2 has such functionali开发者_JS百科ty?) or do I have to develop my own?

Or maybe there is a javascript library that html encodes invalid parts and I can just have the server only accept that subset?

You could probably use Anti-XSS. See this SO question for relevant tips.

You could decorate the action you are posting to with the [ValidateInput] attribute in order to accept dangerous characters:

[ValidateRequest(false)]
public ActionResult Index(MyViewModel model)
{
    return View(model);
}

And when the moment comes to show them on a page make sure you HTML encode them:

<%= Html.Encode(Model.SomeProperty) %>

or using the new syntax in ASP.NET 4:

<%: Model.SomeProperty %>

Also if you are using ASP.NET 4 make sure you put the following in your web.config:

<httpRuntime requestValidationMode="2.0" />

or the ValidateRequest attribute might not be taken into account.
