I need a regular expression to convert reserved XML characters in an HTML
stream to their safe XML equivalent. Can it be done w/ one expression?
Here's the list:

" = "
' = '
< = &lt;
= &gt;
Click to expand...
= = &eq;
& = &amp;

Thanks,

Craig

Try the HttpUtility.HTMLEncode method. I think that will handle the
characters you listed.
