How can you turn off request validation in IIS Express?

Question

I have always been able to turn off request validation on IIS and cassini when I need to post HTML from an HTML Editor. Problem is I can't seem to do so on IIS express. Have tried the following:

<%@ Page Language="C#" ValidateRequest="false"

<system.web>
<pages  validateRequest="false">

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Maybe you could try to change the web.config like this:

<system.web>
 <httpRuntime requestValidationMode="2.0" />
</system.web>
