how to append HTML content in angular 2 using innerHTML

Question

I use innerHTML to render HTML Content in my component. But innerHTML remove all the attributes (eg: removes style attributes) in the HTML content and renders it. But need to render as it is, and doesn't want to extract any attribute from the HTML content. Is there any equivalent to innerHTML or do we can accomplish the desired result with innerHTML. Thanks in Advance.

my template file

<div id="more-info-box" class="modal fade" role="dialog">
    <div class="modal-dialog">
        <div class="modal-content">
            <div class="modal-header">
                <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal">&times;</button>
                <h4 class="modal-title">Title</h4>
            </div>
            <div class="modal-body">
                <div class="clearfix">
                    <div [innerHTML]="htmlContent" class="long-desc-wrap">
                    </div>
                </div>
            </div>
         </div>
    </div>
</div><!-- End Info box -->

my component file

import { Component } from '@angular/core';


@Component({
  selector: 'cr-template-content',
  templateUrl: './app/channel.component.html'
})
export class TemplateComponent {
  constructor() {

  }

  htmlContent = '<p>This is my <strong style="color:red">Paragraph</strong></p>'

}

My current output is the content rendered without style attribute. But the desired result should be with style attribute.

Using ViewChild.

import {ViewChild,ElementRef,Component} from '@angular/core'

create a local variable in the template

<div #div ></div>

query the local variable inside component class

@Component({...}) class MyComponent {
@ViewChild('div') div:ElementRef;
}

access native element inside any function

this.div.nativeElement.innerHTML ="something";

that's it. ☺
