Chapt 40: pg.1240-1241

When I run this example through Chrome, the Browser is not rendering a Form, but the actual string that was returned from the GetForm() method:

<form method="post" action="form"><input type="text" name="text1" /><input type="submit" value="Submit" /></form>

Also, in the Encoding example (pg. 1239-1240) it returns the string instead of interpreting the JavaScript alert:

<script>alert("hacker");</script>

Indeed, in this case Chrome behaves different to Microsoft Edge.

HTML5 defined (at least when I checked the specs) if a page is not completely defined (with missing html/head/body elements), the browser should automatically fill that. This spec might be changed with newer updates (I think I've seen this behavior with Chrome as well).
With today's versions, Microsoft Edge supports not complete pages and renders them, and Chrome does not.
For the moment, just try these samples with Microsoft Edge.
In the next few days I'll extend the samples to return complete HTML code instead of fragments.

Cheers,

Now I also tried the page using Firefox, and it behaves as expected - similar to Microsoft Edge.
Anyway, I'll add complete HTML in the next few days to have it correctly rendered in Chrome as well.

added a HtmlHelper class that creates HTML doc-type and head to make it work with Chrome as well:https://github.com/ProfessionalCShar.../master/ASPNET
