richtextbox - passing string with html tags to controller in asp.net mvc -

i'm using asp.net mvc2 , want implement rich text area, , passing contents in textarea controller. however, found since contents of rich text area contains html tags, such "
", cannot passed controller. if remove html tags using regex expression, works well.

what can pass these contents containing html tags controller?

2 ways can in case + put line of configuration web.config file

<configuration>     <system.web>         <pages validaterequest="false" />         <httpruntime requestvalidationmode="2.0" />     </system.web> <configuration> 

• put 1 attribute ([validateinput(false)]) onto action want posting on server side

public class dummycontroller : controller     {         [validateinput(false)]         public actionresult save(formdata formdata)         {             return view();         }     }
