AllowHtml attribute not working

Question

I have a model with this property:

     [AllowHtml]
     [DisplayName(\"Widget for Table\")]
     [StringLength(1000, ErrorMessage = \"Maximum chars 1000\")]         


        

Answer 1

I had the same problem. My model class is named "GeneralContent" and has the property "Content". In my action method i used attribute like this:

public ActionResult Update(GeneralContent content)

when i renamed content argument to cnt, everything works well. I think MVC is confused when some attribude of model class has the same name as the argument in action method.
