In order to post xml or html to the server, you first have to escape it and then decode on the server.

$.ajax({
    type: "POST",
    url: "Home/GetResults",
    data: { 
        inputxml: escape('<test></test>')
    },
    success: function(msg) {
        var data = JSON.parse(msg);
        alert(data.Message);
    },
});

on the server, you would then decode it by:

HttpUtility.UrlDecode(inputxml);
