How do I turn off request validation in MVC2?

Question

I needs to find a way to allow html tags in MVC2 model binding.

In MVC3 there is a way but MVC2 I dont know. can you help?

In MVC3

[AllowHtml]
public string SomeProperty{ get; set; }

I need some alternate method for AllowHtmlAttribute in mvc2

You could use the [ValidateInput(false)] attribute on the controller action:

[ValidateInput(false)]
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult SomeAction(MyViewModel model)
{
    ...
}

This will disable input validation for all properties of the model. There's no way in ASP.NET MVC 2 to do this per property - it has to be for the entire request.

I need remove validation for one property not for all. Are there any way to do it? – lasitha edirisooriya Sep 18 '13 at 11:02
No, sorry, I am afraid there's no such feature in ASP.NET MVC 2. There's quite a lot of the entire stack that has to be rewritten in order to support it. – Darin Dimitrov Sep 18 '13 at 11:03
