Display </ in a validation message

Question

I have a regular expression attribute to validate the user input against

</

. So if the user enters

</

in the input, then the following message should be displayed:
The following value is not allowed (

but the output is displayed like this:

<span id="CurrentPassword-error">The following values are not allowed (<!--)--></span>

I have used HTML.Decode and HTML.Encode and HTML.Raw but the same result.

Answer 1

You can use an HTML encoder for special characters: < = < > = >

<span id="CurrentPassword-error">The following values are not allowed (</span>
