hi vyas,

Thats because of the security feature provided by dotnet net to prevent
Cross-site scripting attacks, so for this certain characters will be
prevented from being passed through the text box.
If you wish to disable this feature set validateRequest=false in the Page
directive or in the configuration file.
else manually validate the text entered in the textbox before submitting.

Hope this helped
