ASPxGridView

If the EncodeErrorHtml property is set to true, the error row content that contains HTML code is parsed so that any angle bracket (the characters < and >) of HTML tags is converted to specific symbols (&lt; and &gt;) when the grid renders its row errors. This allows the HTML code to be represented on the page as text:

If this property is set to false, the row errors that contain HTML tags are not specifically parsed and are rendered as pure HTML markup. This allows the result of the HTML code to be displayed in the grid:
