HttpRequestValidationException when signing out
<p>On my master page I have a LoginStatus control which allows users to sign out of the application.  The problem is that if within the page, the user enters invalid data like "&lt;test&gt;" and then, <em>without</em> submitting the form, the user clicks "sign out" a HttpRequestValidationException is raised.  When the user clicks "sign out", any pending input is going to be discarded anyway.</p>

<p>What I ended up doing is using javascript to call reset() on the form when the user clicks "sign out."  This circumvents the HttpRequestValidationException problem adequately.  Does anyone have other suggestions for how to deal with this scenario?</p>
