.NET Forum / .NET Framework / New Users / May 2008XML Escaping a String?
I have a URL like "https://aaaa.aaa/bbb/bbbb/ccc?dd=44&ee=55%c2066 And I wan to put it in an XML configuration file. Trying to use HttpUtility to HTML encode it is not enough, I need to "XML Encode" it, how can I do that? Thanks. > I have a URL like "https://aaaa.aaa/bbb/bbbb/ccc?dd=44&ee=55%c2066 > > And I wan to put it in an XML configuration file.

If you want to put it in an XML file, I'd use the XML APIs to create the XML file in the first place - they will usually take care of all this for you.

I'm also not sure whether or not it works for attributes. I think it's generally simpler to use a proper XML API whose job is to hide things like this.
