How Do I Save and Display HTML in Grails Using the CKEditor?

Question

I'm using the CKEditor plugin of Grails and while I can store the HTML content from CKEditor to the database, I can not render it properly in the view.

What I'm getting in the view is the HTML escaped and not as mark-up content.

<p> sdfsdfsadf</p> <p> asdfasdfasdf</p> <p> asdfasdfasdf</p> <p> &yen;</p>

When I want:

sdfsdfsadf
asdfasdfasdf
asdfasdfasdf
¥

How do I get the stored data to render properly?

Answer 1

Migrated to Grails 2.4 and after some head scratching, found <%=expression%> is deprecated.

Using the new syntax ${raw(expression)} solved my issue.

Answer 2

try ${instance?.attribute?.decodeHTML()}
